I went to the gym this morning and watched the morning news for the first time in quite a while. We usually don't have it on at breakfast time, because it's annoying to have a TV and a 3 year old blaring at the same time. But, as I walked on the treadmill and listened to Good Morning America, I was struck by how many people have opinions on everything. The topics of the morning were the 2012 elections and the economy. 2012 is a long way off still, but we have plenty of opinions about the candidates. The economy is not a future reality but a present one, and one that I know is extremely important. And yet, people continue to scream and shout about what they think our government should do to strengthen the economy. If there was a clear answer, don't you think they'd already have it figured out by now? Why all the rhetoric and the pontificating? And it's the problem a very complex one, something that is more involved than can be explained in a two minute segment with flashy pictures?
I read an interesting article that helped me to put things in perspective a bit, and I hope it might help you too. Check out: Debt and the Cost of Discipleship
