I am always showing myself as being a fool,
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Yvonne - I hope not. I don't think so!
ReplyDeleteMy husband comes up with some great axioms sometimes. One that I like is: "You do not go to work to make friends; you go to work to work" (when I complain about things that happen at work, lol)
ReplyDeleteAlso, to the world we will appear to be foolish, and I've had to learn to accept that ( but I still tend to think I can somehow drill the truth into people's heads, but it just doesn't work) ...I know that isn't really what you are saying here, but it kinda applies to those who want to maintain that doctrine doesn't matter...if they want to hold onto that mistaken idea, we cannot change it unless the Lord makes it happen. :)
We can all be mistaken about something...another axiom that my husband borrowed from a list of axioms that makes the rounds on "the net":
Those who think they know everything are really annoying to those of us who do
He uses that one on me sometimes when I go on and on about "the trouble with some people" and then we both laugh.
Good thing that God is a forgiving God, and that it is His perfection that counts, not ours!
