It's In Jesus!

"Common sense and success belong to me. Insight and strength are mine." Proverbs 8:14

Common Sense. Success. Insight. Strength.  These are all things that we in our humanity think we possess on our own.

We credit ourselves for our potent or lack of common sense.  We fight and strive and pursue success at any length.  And don't get me started on our own opinions, the Bible even says "every way of a man is right in his own eyes" (Proverbs 21:2), but still in our humanity we will declare that our insight is prime. Lastly if you drive around your neighborhood and see how many gyms are posted up in your city because man believes his strength lies within his physique and capability to overpower another.  

A Reminder

Romans 8:2 "And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death."

September of 2011 my phone plan was up and I was contemplating changing carriers because I wanted to upgrade to an iPhone. I was really getting frustrated with the hourglass on my then current Blackberry. With the new iPhone4S being launched very soon I waited in expectation to see what the options were.  To my surprise my carrier was going to start providing the iPhone! Finally towards the end of October I was able to get my iPhone at a great deal due to the expiration of my plan.  One of the key features on this new phone was Siri. 

Siri is like a friend, no more like a secretary, in my phone.  You can ask Siri questions and get a response, many of my teenagers at church love having conversations with it.  You can tell Siri to remind you of stuff and it's entered into your Calendar or Reminders.  It's great!
