From today’s reading...
If today you hear his voice,
harden not your hearts.”
Humans are fatally-flawed creatures.
We are unaware of our cognitive biases (if we even know what a cognitive bias is).
We have selectively selective brains that make us blind to what we don’t want to see.
We have reticular activation systems that make us see what we want to see.
We’re afraid of change but bored with the same-old, same-old.
We’re critical and judgmental of others but expect second chances when we screw up.
Yet we’re called to hear his voice and soften our hearts.
But Wes, it says ‘if.’ So we’re not called to hear God’s voice. We’re only called to soften our hearts IF we hear his voice.”
Ahhhh.
You got me.
But you’re reading this, so you’ve heard his voice.
Now you must decide if you will...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
