I just had my first real job interview today at a temp agency, and I was a nervous wreck.
Regardless, I think I got the job/jobs. The woman seemed pretty understanding, and for Christs sake, its only temping..
Until Genesis, chapter eleven, we had no war.
Until God set us to fight each other, for the rest of
human history.
"On a plain in the land of Shinar, all people toiled together."
All humanity with a shared vision,
a great noble dream they worked side by side to fulfill
in this time before armies and weapons and battles.
Then God looked down to see their tower, the people's
shared dream,
inching up, just a little too close for comfort
And God said, "Behold, they are one people... and this is
only the begining
of what they will do... Nothing that they propose to do
will now be impossible for them..."
His words, in His Bible. The Book of Genisis, chapter eleven.
So our God, our powerful God got so scared he
scattered the human race
across the face of the earth,
and shattered their language to keep his children apart.
An Almighty God this insecure?
Who pits his children against each other, to keep them weak.
This is the God we're supposed to worship?
