Wisdom Lost and The Ways of a Wild Man!

 Bloggers, when I say that we are all a troubled and sickly people, that is not a long stretch of my imagination. And I know that I do have a highly charged imagination that does have a habit to break lose from its chains that I have it tied to, or as others may say, that it sprouts wings when I am idled minded, and it wants to fly off to unknown lands and linger there for awhile. In the past, my mind was a very dulled and empty place. And if it hadn't been for my dreams I would still be there now. However, because I love to stay real and in the land of reality, I have to drag that crazy imagination of mind back into my reasoning mental faculties and retrain it to listen to what is true because that is the best way to stay Sane in a World gone Mad. And I tell my imagination that if I had listen to all the wise people that tried to teach me long ago about the better ways to live, that I could have been way better off in every good and prosperous way. But I thought that I was the smartest person in the world, and because I was self sufficient and very young and strong, I said that I didn't need nobody's advice to help me to make it in this life. I said to myself, " I can handle my own problems and bring resolutions to them all..., all by myself! I don't need nobody or their help. All I need is my intellect and I am off to greet my success in the future." Yeah right Brother, did you succeed in all your crooked ways brother? Did you have to resort to using brute force or stealth when success evaded you like a dreaded disease? What happened to your wise ways of doing things your way? What did the wise counsel at the Gate; you're Wise teachers from the Big House, give you? Man, all I know is that in my life I have heard Wise people, especially my grandma Florencia, tell me from the time that I was a little Black skinned Mexican boy, that I needed The God of the Bible to teach me the ways to live out my life in peace and prosperity. Although she was a Catholic at that time, she had many little ceramic colorful idol statutes with lit candles on altars to them throughout her little house. But that is all I knew about their Religion. I didn't care for that Religion because Catholic Priest denied me and my baby brother Sam, to enter Sunday Morning Mass Services one morning because although our clothes were clean and washed, they were full of stitched up patches. Ever since then, which was about the time that I was 9 or 10 years old, I never went back to that Church. But, about that same time my Dad took the five brothers to a Ten Commandment's movie by Cecil B. De Mills and when I saw the story about Moses and The God of Fire, I told myself then, "That God of Fire will be my only God forever!" And although I never established a personal relationship with Him or ever bothered to understand The Bible, I called Him "Father."  And when I pray even now I address my prayer to Him. And as I was saying, because all the grown ups in my families talked well of Him and didn't hate Him, I did the same. Nonetheless, I saw that my grown up family members would practice some prohibited acts that were frown by in their religious teachings. Much later I was able to see the hypocrisies in all the religions of the World. I even saw it in many American Christian Churches. And all these experiences in my life have shaped how I view the World today in 2024. And as I continue watching more experiences dance before my eyes today, I see that we have not learned anything from our past. Today however, it seems that the moral decline has gotten worst than back then. But on second thought, it was worst in ancient times. Look around now however, and what do we see, we see many more zombies than in the 1950's. Even children in grade school are classified with some kind of mental or psychological disorder and have been diagnosed that way by Medical so called experts, and those alligators have these poor kids on mood drugs. From the looks of things it seems that human beings are more dependent on some kind of psychotropic drug just to function in daily life. Man!, what is wrong with this picture? Then add all the other great ills of our great society and one can only hang their head in disbelief. Look at all the poor battered single Mom's in America who eek out a living taking care of their babies that their man left behind, and who now suffers greatly because of all the starving Bill collecting Sharks who make the women's lives unbearable. Man, life is a great mess even without the specter of War and Death. What happened here!? What happened to Wisdom and understanding? What happened to Justice for all people? Where are all The Wise men and Women who teach The Word of God? Yes, I know that our experiences with set backs are means and lessons of learning for us so that we can do better in the future. However, my experience has been that without a Wise teacher who is knowledgeable about how to walk in the ways of God from the time one is Born is the best way to learn Wisdom. Take The Great Preacher King Solomon for example, he said come to me for Godly Instructions and I will teach you. Experience can only teach so much and yet still has limitations. And the better example for Wisdom is Christ Jesus Himself, and The wisdom that He can give. What a Thrill and exciting it is to find The True Lost Wisdom. One can get all giddy and happy when they find it because it is better than finding Lost Treasure! And it is better than hitting a Gold Mine. Jesus Christ encompasses all Wisdom and He is All one needs for godly living. And it is this Godly lifestyle that we come to live that will give you Favor and Blessings to prosper in this World, the World that thinks and claims that it is foolishness to believe in such Bible fairytales. But, King Solomon learned the hard way that the real fools say in their heart... that there is no God. And as we can clearly see that Wisdom was lost, and a Dark Counterfeit to true wisdom took its place because we wanted it that way. We taught that we could resolve all our problems without God, yeah right. If that were true, why are we all human beings at each others throats constantly over anything? Why are we killing each other when there is no War. Even among our own families we are divided because there is war there too. Peace time don't mean a thing because violence is in our genetic make up and we don't have the spiritual power to bring it under control. But what else do we have problems bringing under control besides our imaginations in our lives? A Wild Man it is said will fight and kill his own brother, mother, and father, just because he isn't happy with the way life has treated him. Or maybe because he hates himself? Or he didn't get enough of his mother's breast milk? Well, all I know is that we need serious help because Judgement is already upon us and we don't even know it. Just last month we had a major Hail storm over my Chicken Shack and my beautiful car got whacked bad. And just this past Thursday night, May the 9th, we had a Tornado whip right by us and I haven't even got an Insurance adjustor to see my Chrysler 300 yet.  And so, with all the Help Centers and Self Help Programs, even The Counselors are disturbed and can't help in any way to make things better for nobody. And only... The Wise Wisdom of God in The Bible can cure what ails us if we allow Him to come into our lives and teach us the Righteous ways to live and Obey His Instructions. That is what it means when The Preacher Jesus Christ says to Listen to Him! And Jesus was not living a double life by preaching to us about The Greatness of God on the one hand, and behind closed doors He was living a life of sin. No!, Jesus was not like us or many of the Kings of Israel or Judah. He is Sinless!!! And He is The Only One Holy!!!!! Satan can't compare to Him, not by an Eternal Indefinite long shot. So with that, I will close and say again, don't let no one steal your Personal Moral Compass or you will lose your way Home. Further, Righteousness will get you there for sure, because Jesus Christ is your Righteousness if you obey Him. So, Let us sleep on that. Thank you very much for listening. God Bless those who have decided to listen to The Preacher King Solomon.
