Ignorance

I
They studied society in depth
They worked hard at Math
They spelled carefully, correctly
They knew basic courtesy, manners
They are forgotten

Ii
Ignorance is bliss
She didn't know kindness, gratitude
He never knew the Commandments
They had healthy babies
There are four adults now with his name
Their lineage may go on for generations
Providence rains on the ignorant & wise
Which is the more delightful way?

A poser Anil, to me anyway; I am pondering on This sort of thing now, Rehab was a woman of The night God used her.. Jonah was a more 'Normal man' and Job God used them and David was a man of killing God used him and Penalised him.' Why does God move with such Varied humans? Blessed are those who hunger And thirst for righteousness; Is one thought That comes, maybe Rehab despite her life was Was inside such? And also the others.?

Shalom blessings Joe. God uses only broken people & nations. Maybe PS mail? Yes, Scriptures always caution us: judge not, only God knows the heart ( Matthew 7). That said, motivation, intention, & objective/ scheme also Is a factor why God uses broken people & nations.
