A line from “Homeland”….between two powerful spy-guys who were former cross-national colleagues and who now find themselves on opposite sides of the international political crevasse and both trying to leverage one another…..”We are both old men. It’s true. It is the curse of old men that we come to realize that, in the end, we have no control over anything.” LOL! Any belief that anyone has that one can have any control in life is an illusion. Wisdom, it seems, arrives when one recognizes that reality and begins to walk humbly with God who does. Living daily into that reality is a constant effort….. part of the human condition. Fortunately, God provides opportunities regularly to bring us back to our senses.
