Grace for your spirit April 11, 2014

Grace for your spirit
Moreover, man does not know his time; like fish caught in a treacherous net and birds trapped in a snare, so the sons of men are ensnared at an evil time when it suddenly falls on them. Ecclesiastes 9:12

Why will people crawl into the same snare and trap over and over again until they perish? The bait in trap blinds them of the snares involved.  I have been trying to trap a raccoon for weeks.  For a while I have been thinking it was smarter than me.  I caught that raccoon in a live trap this week, and discovered something.  We are equally careless.  He put himself in harms way for a sweet treat.  People do the same thing over and over again.  What trap are we crawling into today?  We won't always be able to get away.  Let's resist before we are trapped too.  Is it our time?
