Well, I did mentioned in my other blog that I don’t like making New Year Resolution. They stress me up when it does not materialized.

But when I was reading my ODB yesterday, I wanted to make one. Just a simple one.

1. To read at least the New Testament in one year. Never completed the whole bible before, always got stuck at Numbers!
2. To start a Family Devotion. Hmmm…have to nudge hubby on this.
3. To go for our 2nd Honeymoon. This year is our 7th year of marriage.

I think 3 is enough. No stress. :P

I was reading the RBC’s Daily Bread date July 10, 2007. The first paragraph goes…

Why do smart people do not-so smart things? Time after time I hear sad stories about people with high IQs who fall short in the area of moral discernment, leading to tragic results. Obviously, a good brain isn’t enough to keep a person from making bad choices.

This is so true. I know someone that is very smart but due to lust, that person committed sinned. That person repented and God forgave, I’m sure about it but I just can’t grasp it until now how someone who is so strong spiritually in the Lord and wise did such stupid thing. Sometimes I blame myself for what that person has done (pls don’t ask why).

Come to think of it, can’t really blame that person coz even King Solomon, the wisest and smartest man who ever lived disobeyed God by marrying foreign women and turn his heart after other gods. (1 King 11:4). King David, a man after God’s heart sins after he caught his eyes on the sexy Bathsheeba.

I realize that most of the time man fall because of woman. It all started when Eve told Adam to eat the forbidden apple. Why man becomes weak with woman’s sexy body, woman’s word and woman’s touch? Why God allows this to happen?
