1Corinthians 1:25 "Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men."
No matter how much we try and learn, it will never be near God's foolishness. I wonder how we keep convincing ourselves that we don't need God. Its easy to stop, sit down in the middle of the path, and refuse to move. This world can crush us in a heart beat. But that is where we need to realize that God is our refuge, "...a very present help in trouble." (Psalm 46:1) We see this message clear in Proverbs 3:5 which states, "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding." If we follow this verse than the world has nothing on us. Only Christ can keep us safe from the wilderness we call the world. If you are not careful, you can end up wondering this wilderness forever. Our understanding will never be more than that, our limited experience and intelligence. God has much more experience, and according to our key passage a vastly larger intelligence than us. It makes no sense to flee from God, we should be running to Him. Psalm 125:1 tells us that, "They that trust in the LORD [shall be] as mount Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth for ever." Praise the God. We need to wake up and realize that this is not a game. We have but one chance to do this right. We need to let God be in charge of everything, and not wonder the wilderness alone.

Yep, if we'd only realize day by day that we are but dust and at the same time know where our help comes from and go get it.
