Just a lttle Jesus is a great start

In good law enforcement fashion, stating the facts as they are and evaluating the scene and evidence gathered are always good things when attempting to come to a conclusion or a position. Discovery is a nice legal word that an attorney may use when preparing a case and he wants to talk about a time period that is important in reviewing information. Our lives as humans could certainly use some old fashion law enforcement techniques from time to time. Building a strong foundation of character is not easy. I enjoy the television insurance commercial where you walking into that special room, just name your coverage and it happens, all you’ve got to do is say yes! Wouldn’t that be great if in building our own lives with character we could do something like that? No one would mind if the world watched either.
I doubt seriously if most folks think about law enforcement and the image of lights and the sound of sirens blaring doesn’t come to thought. I’m not sure why, but flashing lights is fun, unless they are in your rear view mirror. In thinking about our individual lives sometimes we need an emergency situation to cause our attention to focus or to bring us to a slower speed or even a stop on the road of life. When I think about such moments in my life the first thought is that flashing lights is not always a bad thing. It could be flashing lights on a sign that are there to simply provide warning of a possible condition or even danger that exists. It is the sound of that yelp or wale that really catches our attention, but if the siren passes us by we naturally express a sigh of relief thinking of guilty and then relief that it’s not us being pulled over, then your mind flashes wondering what’s happened, is there an accident ahead, what’s the emergency.
Facts can be difficult because of required explanation. Gathering evidence can be time consuming and exhausting. Not exactly the things we want to hear but certainly conditions that are true. If we embrace them as parts of the process the system may not take as long to deliver an answer as the wait seems or appears. I believe it is in the discovery that you and I learn to shine or we just continue to polish away. Wouldn’t it be easy if we could reach the perfection of life we desired and that became the facts that remained forever? It would be great to have one big battle knowing that at the end all things were final, but life and our character isn’t that easy. Yes, life is a battle, we have challenges that may cause you to shout Hallelujah or it’s possible that you might just feel like cussing up a storm! Again, I wish I could write a couple simple steps to many things in life with us building our personal foundations of character being easily solved by those steps, but that’s not that case.
Many will never travel a journey to see what can be discovered through a journey of faith because they think all the facts have already been gathered. Sometimes we are quick judges and have settled all things in our mind, thus another possibilities or opportunities are closed by the negative trait or condition of narrow minded behavior. Isn’t it amazing how we could claim to be so open yet so shut off to thoughts? We love flashing lights of color like a disco but we want to be in control of the switch that turns them on and off.
Life is never easy. Mistakes in the average life will be many and the one trait that will set the difference and the distance between all these written discussion will be our response to the final facts. Can we be startled and over react to things, yes, and it’s just as easy to ignore or act like you don’t really hear or see things too. The key to life is exposure and I would recommend a little bit of Jesus to get you started.
Until then
