Poem: Costly Signal

Regarding the absolute authority of God,
it’s crazy, silly and futile to rebel;
know that everyone will ultimately bow,
before His throne or the gates of Hell.

Foolishness of God exceeds Mankind’s wisdom;
hidden are the keys of His profound mystery.
We are inspired with awe without intimidation,
knowing that He was crucified upon that Tree.

Acknowledge His deeds, since He loved us first;
worship Him now; His precepts we’re to observe.
Bask unashamedly in the Presence of His Spirit;
know that we have been chosen to ultimately serve.

The sacred megastructure of God’s Kingdom
is a divine threshold of evolving complexity,
that presses us to aspire towards greatness,
though we may be unable to perceive or see…

the plans and purpose He has envisioned for us.
Know without doubt that His plans are intentional!
He sustains His ongoing power through humility;
it’s time we worship Him; discern His… costly signal.

Joe Breunig,  

Foolishness: the quality of being rash and foolish; a stupid mistake; the trait of acting stupidly or rashly Now that the term has been defined with some clarity, if God WERE to act FOOLISHLY, then the wisdom of that mindset would still EXCEED the 'wisdom of Mankind". In addition, this also references 1 Corinthians 1:25 (NIV), which reads: For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. Does this help?
