i just read this post from The Real Live Preacher blog.
Great insight on life as we know it which looks perfectly normally to us but incredibly weird to outsiders. It’s amazing how slight changes happening slowly overtime can get you so far away from where you’ve come.
The statement below was a question presented to the Real Live Preacher in a recurring dream he has. The question comes from Martin Luther, if you don’t know who he is, there’s an answer available in the beginning of the post linked below.
?Our lives are filled with much hardship. Winters are hard; Summers too. Only wealthy people may hear music, and most people cannot read. Just securing food and water takes hours out of our days. In my entire lifetime, I only managed to write a set of commentaries and an assortment of other works and treatises. With your many labor saving devices, your elevators and your canned soup, I imagine that people can accomplish so much more with their lives. I imagine your days are filled with prayer and creation and loveliness. It is a marvelous time in which you live, is it not? Are people fully educated and busily engaged with writing and art and music and philosophy and theology??
Be sure and check-out the RLP’s response on his blog. Excellently insightful.
