I know the right answer is Scripture, but if I was honest with myself, I had to admit that I tend to also look towards intellect and tradition -- got to work on this!!

Well, I have to say that I find the results to be a little "Jobish" if you ask me. Hmmmmm. Like Rachel said I want to pick God's way, but I think I often I pick the Book according to Trish more often.

I WANT scripture and for God alone to be the source of wisdom in me and my sole Authority, but I have found myself thinking, "Wow, God made me pretty smart!" and "Wow, God has given me a lot of pretty remarkable experiences and has given me a talent for using them to illustrate....!". I'm finding it's been easy for me to believe I'm giving God the honor and the credit when I'm really not. Satan must be so pleased!
