Paradox of Wisdom
A little girl asked her mother, ‘How did the human race appear?’ The mother answered, ‘God made Adam and Eve and they had children and that’s how people were created.’ Two days later the girl asked her father. The father answered, ‘Many years ago there were monkeys, from which the human race evolved.’ The confused girl returned to her mother and said, ‘Mom, you told me the human race was created by God, and Dad said we developed from monkeys?’ The mother answered, ‘Well, dear, it is very simple. I told you my side of the family and your father
told you his.”
Even in our own family, life can be presented in a contradictory way. But in life we should always seek peace and harmony and that brings the wisdom God requires when we do two things: One, move beyond our head to our heart and two, change when we hear the truth.
When we move from our head to our hearts it allows the sword of Christ, truth of God, to change us into who God wants us to be and we move beyond the paradoxes of life. This sword is the paradox and the truth is life everlasting.
