Fellow Labourers-
The world indeed speaks, but how do we listen? Do we listen to distinguish the tree from the forest or to see the forest as the tree? Do we listen with romantic ears or scientific ears? How we listen can determine how we interpret the world.
Does our world change daily by the happenings around us or is our world as constant as the rising and setting of the sun?
There is no one right way of interpreting the world, but if our interpretation does not lead us to the creator of the world then to me it is obviuos that we have missed the mark. It is not that all roads lead to God, but the one road that leads us to him is filled with sign posts along the way. We must not second guess the sign posts; we must stop long enough to get the understanding from the One who placed them there in the first place.
"When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddling band for it, And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors, And said, Hitherto shall thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed? Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place; That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it? It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment."Job 38:9-14
Listen the world speaks!!
Pax Vobiscum
