Intellectually confused? Quite thinking-follow the Good News Ephesians 4:17

Good morning all! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

Ephesians 4:17 "With the LORD's authority I say this: Live no longer as the Gentiles do, for they are hopelessly confused."

  What is this saying to us today?  We, as human beings, tend to think our way away from God.  When we do this creates confusion.  Intellectual pride comes in. ' There are no super powers, no God, we evolved through time'.  Now, does one really believe this?  To honestly believe we evolved from a single cell amoeba?  Oh, please, how can someone believe this?  People do!  Why?
    Intellectual pride and superiority trying to understand.  As humans we tend to want an explanation for what happened.  How did Moses explain the burning bush that did not burn up?  No logic there, only God.  How did the Israelites cross the Red Sea?  Some say there was a risen area the people could have walked on.  Huh?  Then how did Pharaoh's army and Pharaoh die in the sea?  Did they just ride head long into the sea?  God!
   How did Gideon and only 300 men win a battle?  Trickery, superior fighting skills? No, once again GOD!!
   God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit will always seem foolish to those who forsake faith and rely on their own understanding.  Pray for the people who try to understand and rationalize everything.  Pray that through your love, friendship, and prayer that their hearts will be open to the Good News.  What is the Good News, Jesus defeated death and we can have life everlasting!  Yea!!
   Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
