I felt that whoever put up the sign that said that the campground was closed had a great grasp of the obvious. Somethings are pretty hard not to know. When the water came up this fast on the Park River in Grafton the campground was one of the first things that were inundated. Unless you want to camp in a boat most people should be able to know that the campground is closed but..
This made me start to think about things that should be pretty obvious, or that everyone knows. Paul says in Romans 1,
For the invisible things of him (God) from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and
Godhead; so that they (all human beings) are without excuse:
We used to call this the “natural knowledge of God”. You have to struggle pretty hard to “disbelieve” but people do. We spend a lot of time in the church spelling out the obvious. Some don’t want to listen.
Anyway there is a lot of water out here and it is going somewhere. Time to get ready to help where and when you can and prayers are always appropriate.
You and the people affected by the high waters are in our prayers. Spring, I think, has finally found ND. They talk about climate change!?! Will they talk about seasonal change next! God, in his mercy, is still in control. We praise and thank him for that.
