if honesty is the best policy then what does it say about our government policies and procedures when honesty seems to be disputed at every point. i've just received some documents through today, regarding the government process that's the bane of our lives (currently), and reading them just reminds me how much our honesty is questioned constantly, refuted and just simply denied. then i even noticed that there was at least one error in the minuting of the document i was reading. sometimes it feels that because the system we are in is so 'day in day out' to the professionals involved, the details aren't important to them and yet when it comes to challenging our 'honesty' they are very quick to jump on the details.
but then i try to hold it lightly in view of the fact that it'll all come out in the wash when God does his laundry - it strikes me more and more each day how ridiculous, and yet genius, it is that God's foolishness is greater than our wisdom. i just love it that God admits that He's foolish (whatever that means) and therefore that foolishness is part of being made in the image of our creator. ooh - what a shift in the way we saw each other if we started to celebrate each other's foolishness!!
