That’s right:  listen up, won’t you — God is not “dead weight”.  Nay, God is the end-all and be-all of our existence, so you might wish to give him more than just a passing thought in your daily deliberations.  Jeremiah, the weeping prophet, is mincing no words here when he says, “cursed is the strong one who depends on mere humans”. We often feel quite self-sufficient in our own intellect, our self-possessed minds and bodies, our sense of self and agency, and our incessant planning abilities.  And yet, no matter how carefully we might wish to arrange things, it is foolish to discount the hand of God in every aspect of our lives.  Where do you find yourself on this matter, gentle reader?
