When I found out God has a partiality toward foolishness and weakness I was stunned, however, it gave me hope. He was fully God and fully human, a paradox beyond all of my understanding.
When I see the best we humans have, aka the Gulf oil debacle. The barking heads on TV, State and Federal elected officials assigning blame back and forth, and British Petroleum being the bottom of the shoe for all to kick and walk on.
I keep thinking the Church will have a voice and take notice of this horrific events unfolding in the Gulf, first Katrina, and now the oil spill. All this appears to me as a prophetic shout out of God’s merciful mercy to spill upon our land, and soon. The season and times are ripe. Israel is back on the hot seat, North Korea is about to explode with hunger and unbridled anger. The Dow and S&P has gone bi-polar. Why do the nations roar?
Water speaks to me of life, and oil, healing. From my perspective, our nation is crying.
Jonah was a sign, Jesus spoke mainly in parables, His people are called sheep, and a stop sign is a sign. I could go on and on about the Kingdom of God as I understand it.
A prima facie in Scripture, the bible is a sapient book that gives insights into the human condition. We are lost without Him, plain and simple. And God is about to show His foolish and weak ways in our lives. He is sending water and oil to convince us to agree with Him. This day is at hand.
God delights in weakness. He is about to convince us.
I took this photo in Washington County 5-31-10 using some new color techniques to give style to this prophetic look. What does it say to you?
