The Wisdom of This World

Some months ago we got one of those emails that circulate like wildfire. Usually I read and delete them, but this one was pretty funny. It was entitled, 'Bail Out Explained' and had this clip of Ma and Pa Kettle from youtube.com.

While I 'laughed out loud' - a part of me was shaking my head - at myself! Is this what I look like to God when I try to figure things out for myself?

Stop deceiving yourselves. If you think you are wise by this world's standards, you need to become a fool to be truly wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God. As the Scriptures say, "He traps the wise in the snare of their own cleverness." And again, "The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise; he knows they are worthless." (1 Cor. 3:18-20)

All for Him,
