3 things to note: First, when I saw this meme, it reminded me of this quote . . . “Si vis pacem, para bellum” which is a Latin adage translated as "If you want peace, prepare for war". The phrase is used to affirm that one of the most effective means to ensure peace for a people is always to be armed and ready to defend oneself. Second, in thinking on this, I thought there are memes like this one that help get us to thinking and our first Meme to Consider (M2C) is focused on the pursuit of wisdom. Third, now in knowing this – how does it fit into the pursuit of wisdom? It boils down to this. |
Ready for a loss of your job? Ready for your car or truck to break down? Ready for evil to confront you? Unfortunately – most are and there is a good chance that you and I can be a part of that as well because we are distracted with the day to day challenges.
So why not . . . be wise, be watchful and pursue wisdom so that you are as prepared as you can be (because regrets are painful)? And yes, thank you for considering all of the above. Our prayers and best wishes for all..
