Am I Trying to Take Away From Jesus?

Edited: December 2025 The role of insects is critical for flowering plants ...and plants are critical to humans. It is true that bees are the most common pollinators, yet flies are second in importance. But in my home, I'd like to establish a 'no-fly zone'. In trying to rid my home of these pests, I've noticed that flies have one of the fastest escape responses. And that frustrating detail makes these insects one of the most aggravating species to us humans. But perhaps the most aggravating species to humans ...is other humans. Sadly, many people don't fear God ...they fear other humans may take away something from them. And sadder yet, is when a person fears someone may take away from them taking away from others. Yet, those who follow those who've moved beyond the point of fear often aren't wise enough to know the 'whys and wherefores' ...nor the extent to which they are being led. Crossing the Rubicon expresses a 'no turning back' commitment. As a child, I read of a Gingerbread Man who chose to cross a different river on a crocodile's snout, but didn't make it. Speaking of 'crossing', when you reach the end of life here on earth, you do want to make it to the other side ...don't you? God is not part of a fairy tale ...so it'd be unwise to think so. And the one who said, "Did God indeed say ...?" truly does not have a happy ending.
