Rejecting Rationalization
You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.
Mark 7:8An Atlanta police officer asked a driver if she knew why he’d stopped her. “No idea!” she said in bewilderment. “Ma’am, you were texting while driving,” the officer gently told her. “No, no!” she protested, holding up her cell phone as evidence. “It’s an email.”
Using a cell phone to send an email doesn’t grant us a loophole from a law that prohibits texting while driving! The point of the law isn’t to prevent texting; it’s to prevent distracted driving.
Jesus accused the religious leaders of His day of creating far worse loopholes. “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God,” He said, quoting the command to “Honor your father and mother” as evidence (Mark 7:9–10). Under the hypocritical cloak of religious devotion, these wealthy leaders were neglecting their families. They simply declared their money as “devoted to God,” and voila, no need to help Mom and Dad in their old age. Jesus quickly got to the heart of the problem. “You nullify the word of God by your tradition,” He said (v. 13). They weren’t honoring God; they were dishonoring their parents.
Rationalization can be so subtle. With it we avoid responsibilities, explain away selfish behavior, and reject God’s direct commands. If that describes our behavior, we’re merely deceiving ourselves. Jesus offers us the opportunity to exchange our selfish tendencies for the guidance of the Spirit behind His Father’s good instructions. Reflect & Pray
In what areas of your life do you find yourself rationalizing? How do these rationalizations square with the wisdom of the Bible?
God, I need Your wise discernment. Rescue me from my denial of my own guilt. Help me live in step with Your Spirit.

Howdy, PRO.
Is the weather finally cooperating well enough that you’re able to get some yard work done?
Been a little damp for it here this week. Next week will be too blazin’ hot.

Hi radu!
We're finally getting a nice weather week, I'm mowing tomorrow and it'll be warm.
Nothing else happening here but I did like that picture of you standing among the corn, looks like it's growing fine!

Well it’s about time y’all got some good weather! And some warmth. It seemed like winter was never going to move out. It was pretty chilly up there last month.
Yes, the corn is growing VERY fine these days. I figure next week I’ll be able to get a shot peeking out from the edge of it. LOL
All the fields of corn and soybeans are looking just gorgeous these days. With a little more rain expected this weekend and temps in the 90s next week, everything should grow by leaps and bounds. Makes for a pleasant drive to and from the museum each weekend, driving past several fields.
