Chosen Generation~

Yes, I live in one of the most ::get's out her leather Rodale:: preternatural states.:)

I took that photo on the highway, coming down from Boulder. My mother LOVES Boulder, and if it wouldn't completley remove me from civilization, she would move back to her college campus in a heartbeat. Those are Colorado's illustrious Flatirons - or the end of them. The large one's look like the back

of an iron, this photo is closer to the foothills.

Anyway. I want to share 1 Corinthians 1:18-19:

"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God... I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."

What an amazing verse. "To us who are being saved it is the power of God."

And then He expands upon how the wisdom of this world is absolutley nothing - my 'wisdom', Barack Obama's 'wisdom', my pastor's 'wisdom,' and your 'wisdom.' It's nothing - compared to His wisdom, it's smaller than a mustard seed.

"For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. ²⁷But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; ²⁸ and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, ²⁹ that no flesh should glory in His presence. ³⁰ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption— ³¹ that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the LORD.”^{c]" style="line-height: 0.5em; ">[c]}

Not many noble are called - it's not the perfect people who are called. It's the dirty, and the undeserving. It's

you and it's me. Sad and repulsive sinners. But not forgotten.

Sadly, that's all I have for right now. I need to do some serious Bible studying.

Post your thoughts, and if there's a subject you'd like to see brought up. Or your disagreements are fine also.:)

So post, call me, email me. Whatever.

If anyone wants me to post/make a button for them, I'd be happy to do so, depending on the content and

purpose of your blog.

And my computer does not like me.:) It really loves changing my titles into other languages.

All right, I need to go do some homework, and my shoulder is killing me.
