The Taste Of Knowledge May Be Sweet But The Understanding Is Bitter...
This is especially true when it comes to the knowledge of Good and Evil,
Truth and Falsehood...
This is because once you take in knowledge to understand it, you realize the sacrifice, dedication and discipline needed to apply the knowledge...
only then, does it become wisdom...
It will also mean your life will never be the same again, with a 180 degree change of heart comes a revelation of what truly matters in life and the intrinsic purpose of your existence...
Until then, you are just entertaining ideas, and being swayed by "new" opinions...
When true knowledge is ancient, objectively solid and available to those that seek it with the initiative to do the right thing...
The bitterness is also in knowing the Truth of the evil prison planet we live in, and realizing the system will attack you, not reward you for righteousness...
Yet the Creator will protect you, which is the only judge that matters...
Recognize when you're collecting excuses instead of facing accountability,
by seeing the reproof God brings into your life through various means...
Whether it be teachers, parents, friends, spiritual experiences, nature, scripture, doctrine, circumstances, dreams...
Being human is not an excuse to be evil and get a first class ticket to self destruction... and God will only lovingly warn you so long...
Live for truth, for spiritual integrity, for service to the Good...
Hear your conscience, have courage, gain understanding, crave wisdom...
Turn away from error and turn toward God.
It matters.
Til next time,
