“Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge.” Proverbs 23:12

WIRRRRRRRRRR!! I had neither seen nor heard the ambulance until I followed another car through the green light onto the main highway. Now that I HAD, it was decision time. The guy in front of me was older and moving very slowly. For reasons I did not understand, I noticed he slowly pulled into the left lane and obviously hadn’t noticed the ambulance. So WIRRRRRRR came again!!!!

Then last night, there was a horrible wreck about 2 miles up the road. The 2 lane traffic was barely moving. Even after 45 minutes, police cars were wailing to get around the traffic to get to the scene. We decided to go for a bike ride. Getting to the highway, I witnessed a police car come up behind a car on a bridge and blair it’s siren. But there was nowhere for the car to go! Interesting!

This morning Katie and I were talking about the Garden of Eden. She had seen something that made her think. Excited, she came in and shared, asking “when and where was evil in the Garden?” Knowing satan and his minions were already on the Earth before God created the Garden, the answer came, ‘evil’ was there all along!’ Obedient perfect Adam and Even just didn’t notice!

This is big! I mean WIRRRRRR big! I had just been thinking about bad attitude, sin, anger and mood and how I would like to be better at avoiding all of it. Then THIS thought came through Katie’s question. MAYBE, if I paid LESS attention to the evil things around me, MAYBE I wouldn’t be as negatively affected! Hey… it’s a thought!

Reading this morning I saw this verse and tumbled it around in my head. With all the things WIRRRRRng around in this world, getting into my head, MAYBE God is trying to tell me that if I WIRRRRRshiped Him MORE… I’d find myself WIRRRRRRRRYing less about the evil things going on around me! What do YOU think? What is it that gets most of YOUR attention?
