The Higher Order!

Mike Nodland

Jumping in the car, I noticed how messy it had become! I cleaned and vacuumed the car, washing and waxing it three weeks ago. Now, it looks like a gravel truck spillage, smells like something died in it and its true color is mud road gray.

Why cannot things stay clean, orderly and pleasant? Does anything move from disorder to order by itself? Evolutionist claim that it does; but I haven’t seen it happen.They claim that everything moves to a higher order-from disorder to order. Really?

Apparently, these people don’t live in houses with basements, nor do they have teenagers, pets or grandchildren. When our teenagers moved out and married, the grandchildren went back to their homes and the pets died and the sump pump was fixedhigher order was temporarily achieved once more.

But then, I spilled my coffee in the car, the exhaust hose came loose from the dryer in the basement, my post-teenage children came back at Christmas with the grandkids, and mice invaded our garage.

Let’s face it: this old world is winding downnot ramping up! Am I clean, orderly and pleasant? Only by the power of the highest order found in Jesus Christ.
