Looking Ahead

I just got done reading the book Rooms by James L. Rubart and this book taught me a few lessons (even if it's not a true story).  In many ways this book reminds me of The Shack but The Shack focuses mainly on forgiveness and the image of God.

In this book a very successful young man owns his own software company.  He gets a letter from his Great-Uncle saying that he left him a house in an area that this young man has tried to forget about. Well the thing about this house that this young man eventually figures out is that the rooms in this house change.  Every time there is a new lesson to be learned, there is a new room that pops up somewhere in the house.  One of these rooms is completely black and there is a voice in it.  The voice tells the young man that it is himself, the other side of the brain.  So the young man trusts it.  In the end, this voice ended up being a demon trying to confuse and lead this man down the wrong path.  

This made me wonder...what voices are we listening to?  Are we listening to voices that come from God or Satan? That one voice that you instantly trust, who is it?  Are you listening to it based on the Bible and it's teachings or are you just believing and trusting of it?  


A professor of mine once told me to question everything.  Don't just take what you hear and believe it- question it and make your own decision about whatever it is.
