Sometimes in the humdrum of "pragmatic adult living", one becomes lazy to think. You just do what you need to do and suddenly you find yourself in a well with an increasingly smaller view.
If seen in a good way, you may become a Sherlock Holmes. You know only what you need to know.
But more commonly, you become narrow-minded, ignorant and apathetic.
Thank God I have friends/colleagues who stimulate me from time to time and remind me how much of a toad I am (becoming). Thank you friends.
God told Abram to leave Ur; Jesus told Peter and Andrew to leave their nets.
29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short, so that from now on even those who have wives should be as though they had none,30 those who weep as though they did not weep, those who rejoice as though they did not rejoice, those who buy as though they did not possess,31 and those who use this world as not misusing it. For the form of this world is passing away.32 But I want you to be without care. He who is unmarried cares for the things of the Lord--how he may please the Lord.33 But he who is married cares about the things of the world--how he may please his wife.34 There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband.35 And this I say for your own profit, not that I may put a leash on you, but for what is proper, and that you may serve the Lord without distraction.
So many things to do, so little time (and discipline).
