You know what I mean.

How often have we made things worse, trying to make them better. It's like a quote I've heard attributed to Albert Einstein, which says, "we can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." In our independence from God, we will run into all kinds of problems unaware.

What we need is a higher perspective by which to see things.

That higher perspective is God.

It's time we stopped running around trying to fix our own problems.

It's time to get quiet and learn how to hear the voice of God before attempting to follow the good advice of religion, which empowers us to try and fix things on our own.
