Warnings!

Exodus 19: 21

"Go down and warn the people, lest they break through to gaze at the Lord, and many of them perish.”

Last night I put up two warning signs at our church, near our pond.

The signs say… “DANGER—Thin Ice—KEEP OFF!”

One would think those signs  would do the trick, and keep people from walking on the thin ice.

Unfortunately, we humans seem to always test simple logic.

For one thing, if you walk out onto the ice, and you fall in, you’ll probably get wet and cold.

And for another, there’s a good chance that if you do fall through the thin ice, you’ll probably die.

I find it amazing the warnings God has given us.

I came in contact with more than one situation this week, where people just failed to heed God’s many warnings.

Are we just not very smart, or on the other hand, are we an extremely rebellious people?

Maybe in this case, both are true.

Can you imagine what our lives would look like, if we just did what God told us to do in the first place?

We probably would have steered clear from a bunch of great heartache.

Are there some Godly warnings you’re pressing your luck on right now?

Maybe you had better stand on the solid Rock, before something frightful happens…
