Be a Thinker-2
Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK ON THESE THINGS.” (Emphasis mine)
…From yesterday…
The truth of the matter is that God gave us a brain and expects us to use it well to solve problems on earth and bring glory to his name, but unfortunately, many have refused to use their head.
Permit me to share this “fictitious story” I once read with you. A man went into a store to buy some brains.
There were four different brains on sale. The salesperson was on hand to help the customer. The customer asked, “I would like to buy the best brains you have.”
The salesperson showed the customer what he had in store. He said, “These are the brains from a nation that invented airplanes, rockets, and satellites.” He continued, “These next ones are from a nation that invented televisions, videos, telephones, radios and stereo systems.” He went on, “This third set of brains comes from a nation that has developed beautiful cities, roads, bridges, trains, airports, tunnels, etc.”
The salesperson was about telling him the prices of the brains when he suddenly remembered and brought out the fourth set of brains. These ones looked rusty and dirty.
Then he said, “This last set of brains is from a nation which has invented nothing and built nothing for itself. This nation even has foreigners coming from outside to build roads and toilets. “I see,” he said, “How much are they anyway?”
The salesman replied, “The first three brains are affordable, but the fourth set of brains is very expensive.”
“Why is that? Why should they be so expensive when they have not been used to accomplish anything?”
To be continued…
