Zeus and Hermes, how could these guys correct that mistake? I still wonder how the apostles manage to stay in the moment and not get caught up in the crowd like everyone else. And yet, they are right to stay grounded because just as quickly as their fame came, it goes and they are run out of the city. Paul was even stoned close to death.
Today, being Ash Wednesday, how appropriate that we are reminded to stay grounded. Despite our earthly fame and prosperity or even our sorrow and pain, we are only dust. It is God that has given us life and we should give Him the glory. But its a two for one deal, not only can we give God the good things, but we can also turn to God with our sins and afflictions and God will help us out. How awesome is that?
