Smarter Than a Fifth Grader

"But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end, when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase." (Daniel 12:4)

Monday, as Phillip worked to get the I-pad up and running, smarter-than-a-5th-grader, 2-year-old toddlergrand said, "Turn the internet on, Granddaddy."

According to the book of Daniel in the Old Testament, increased travel and knowledge mark the time of the end. 

Over the past 100 years, travel amplified from bumpy wagon rides over rutted trails to rocket ship trips to the moon. Human knowledge, according to the internet, doubled approximately every century until 1900. By the end of WWII, it doubled every 25 years. Today, human knowledge doubles every 13 months, and IBM predicts that knowledge will soon sky rocket to doubling every 12 hours!

As the seemingly last grains of time slip through the hour glass, never put off till tomorrow, beloved, what you can do for Jesus today.
