Smarter than the average cat....

Einstein was a brilliant man, as whole world acknowledges.  It must have been a blessing to just have been around him.  Not only was he intelligent to the extreme, but he had a humorous side as well.  So, I wonder what you would learn if you stayed with him awhile???  Take his cat for instance; what tidbits of wisdom could HE have absorbed???  No idea, whatsoever.  But, when it comes to knowledge, I know where to start...

Proverbs, Chapter 1
  7 The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of knowledge;
but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.

 Think you are smart? Do others look to you for answers?  Have your years given you wisdom?  What you think you have is nothing if God is not part of the "equation".  Knowledge is far more than the ability to do math or physics or quote from great philosophers from ancient times.  Knowledge expands into wisdom when what you know matures into the ability to understand it in the context of eternity.  A cat will always be a cat and mice (squared or not) will be one of the highlights of its life.  Humans were created by God and the truly intelligent among us will seek eternity to complete their understanding of life.  This begins by seeking God and acknowledging HIM as the ruler of the universe.  Of course, you could reject this and take pride in what you know, but then your foolishness would exceed that cute cat in the cartoon.  Your choice!!!!
