August 21 – Wisdom Sees God
Psalm 14: 1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good. 2 The Lord looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.3 All have turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
We often say if God judges us, He is a hateful God. The one who hates us is the devil and his cohorts and they are destroying the world. God is Love. So if He is love, why does He judge? The paradoxical truth lies here. God would pour out His Love to any soul who sought Him, immediately, every single one and He would reveal Himself to them, humility is the key!

The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car:’My Daughter, go with God And may He protect you.She responded: ‘Only If He (God) travels in the trunk as it is full here.” Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died. The car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact. The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none was broken!
