100:4.5 In the mind’s eye conjure up a picture of one of your primitive ancestors of cave-dwelling times – a short, misshapen, filthy, snarling hulk of a man standing, legs spread, club upraised, breathing hate and animosity as he looks fiercely just ahead. Such a picture hardly depicts the divine dignity of man. But allow us to enlarge the picture. In front of this animated human crouches a saber-toothed tiger. Behind him, a woman and two children. Immediately you recognize that such a picture stands for the beginnings of much that is fine and noble in the human race, but the man is the same in both pictures. Only, in the second sketch you are favored with a widened horizon. You therein discern the motivation of this evolving mortal. His attitude becomes praiseworthy because you understand him. If you could only fathom the motives of your associates, how much better you would understand them. If you could only know your fellows, you would eventually fall in love with them.
Know-how
Anticipate the best today
We are going towards God’s Way.
We can feel it in our bones.
Everybody has a phone.

Communicators everywhere
We wear them like our underwear.
They’re a must, so we’re aware
Of our friends' feelings, we do care.

Texting, texting, info travels
Around the world as time unravels.
The world is half asleep at once.
Night and Day at twilight crunch.

Cycles on this earth exist.
We all live ours, we do subsist.
We’re all within the flow of time.
We’re all here by God’s design.

The plan includes what is to be.
Time flows on, relentlessly.
Progress is truly up to us.
Progress with God is what we trust.

Trust in that which is inside.
Find a leader for our tribe.
Trust in what He does decide.
To the way of God, we must abide.

Thank You, Father, the day bodes well.
The air is fresh where I do dwell.
Storms may come, but not for now.
We must advance our Spirit know how.
