Creating things that devour us

Posted on March 26, 2014 by vincentsmithauthor

There’s an ancient legend from India about four princes who went off to develop special powers and then met to reveal what they had learned. The first said, “I have learned how to take a creature’s bone and create flesh on it.” The second said, “I know how to grow that creature’s skin and hair on its bones.” The third said, “I am able to create its limbs;” and the fourth said, “I know how to give it life.” So the brothers went into the jungle and they found the bone of a lion. Each one did his bit and the result was a ferocious beast that jumped on his creators and ate them.
We too have the capacity to create what can devour us. Goals and dreams can consume us; possessions and property can obsess and destroy us. That’s why Jesus said we should make finding God’s Kingdom our priority, and all the other good things will follow.

    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though
    you relied on the video to make your point.

    You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting
    videos to your site when you could be giving us something informative to read?
