Ever entertain the idea of what you would wish for if you were given one wish from God? I love dreaming of the endless possibilities. Would you, like Solomon, choose wisdom, or have you always wanted the Scrooge Mcduck vault with a diving board into a mound of gold coins? I’m a Simpsons fan and immediately Lisa’s answer comes to mind. She would wish for world peace. Think that through for a second. We would all live in a utopia free of any corruption. To do anything wrong at all would disrupt the peace. There would be no need for contracts, only promises; you would never purchase a bolt for a door would suffice. Police would not be needed, only law. There wouldn’t even be a need for movie tickets; a person would just pay the fare and walk into the movie. Envisioning a world like this, I began to realize just how fallen our current world truly is. Evil is the framework all societies are built around. Every law and every security measure is in place because it must be. This evil is in us all. There is something twisted, almost demonic, within the very heart of man. Thank God for a grace that restores.
What would you wish for?
