The question and the answer by Gary Rose


Look, there is a chicken (or is it a rooster?) crossing the road. Its even crossing the road WITH the light- how remarkable! I wonder- Why is the chicken crossing the road? Humm, ever heard anything like that? I have and I wonder why people would ask the question in the first place? What difference does it make? Who cares? Why bother with such trivial matters? 

The answer is probably different for each person who has the mind to think on such things- so there really is no definitive answer, but it is easier to occupy ones thoughts with trivial matters than to consider spiritual teaching from God that would force us to change our ways to please HIM! 

Consider...

1 Corinthians, Chapter 1 (WEB)
 18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.  19 For it is written, 

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”

20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.  22 For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,  23 but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks,  24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;  25 because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

Want to think great thoughts? Read your Bible; it will make you think, then ponder, then question virtually every aspect of "modern living". God will change your life when you consider what HE has to say. You will never be the same again. Oh, you may never be really "perfect", but I guarantee that you will be much better if you listen to the Almighty. And, if you obey HIS Gospel and remain faithful- there is that thing about living forever in heaven with GOD!!! THINK ABOUT THAT ONE, and forget about some dumb chicken!!!
