Quick half-explored thought...is there anything we can think, feel, or do that does not have an eternal consequence? From the velocity and trajectory of the 9mm shells that killed 32 people on Virgina Tech's campus this last week to the seemingly small grimaces I sometimes give my spouse that cut into her heart and wound her deeply, is there ANYTHING that does not have eternal ramifications?
Proverbs 16:1 The plans of the heart belong to man,
but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
4 The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
even the wicked for the day of trouble.
9 The heart of man plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps.
25 There is a way that seems right to a man,
but its end is the way to death.
33 The lot is cast into the lap,
but its every decision is from the Lord.
As Derek Webb said and I paraphrase (probably badly), "You can't plan the ends and not plan the means."
Does each keystroke I make while writing this MATTER?
More later...
