 Today’s Thought “Remembering the Newspaper Delivery” G. Ward

2 Corinthians 11

14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.

 

My brother and I were horrible managers of the paper route we longed for. Not so much regarding delivery and weekly collection, but what we did with the monies collected. Having lived in an area where two bakeries existed within six short blocks of one another, along with the price of candy (of sorts) yielding 2 for one penny, overwhelmed our greater sensibility. It’s this kind of malfeasance that’s become so prevalent with the way many receive information; particularly when the source is with visuals in credibility, along with great ability to articulate scenarios altogether uncertain for hearers, yet compelling intrigue. Information provided in moments can seem to be an excellent substitute versus waiting on the illustrious paperboy’s evening delivery, but what was assured of the news provided then, offered facts (outside of Dear Abby). The Spirit realm remains the most impressive phenomena; however, it never promoted an idea of being captivated with a speaker, but compels every hearer’s exercise in best observation of the words provided through a prudent investigation of information offered (*Ac.17:11, 1 John 4:1-3).
