Getting to the Root of Our Problems - BIBLE WISDOM PROTECTS US!

A wise man once said that "wisdom is proved righteous by all its children," or results.  (Luke 7:35)  An example of that wisdom is found at (Isaiah 2:22), which says:  "For  your own sakes, quit trusting in mere man."   That sound advice can protect us from false hopes and unrealistic expectations.  Kenneth, who lives in a North American c9ity plagued with violence, says:  "One politician after another promises to make things better, but they cannot.  Their failures area  regular reminder of Bible wisdom."

Daniel quoted earlier, writes:  "Evert day convinces me more that humans cannot govern well. . . .Trusting in your bank account or in some pension scheme is no guarantee of a good retirement.  I have seen people  suffer terrible frustration  in this regard." 

The Bible does even more than protect us from unrealistic expectations. It also  give us home, as we will go on and see.
