"All the trees of the field will know that I the Lord bring down the tall tree and make the low

So speaks the Lord God, Creator of all things. We men and women think too highly of our own thoughts. We arrogantly suppose that we know what is good and what is not; we know who is wise and who is not; who should rule and who should submit. Societies we create reflect our intellectual deficiencies and our moral incompetence. We are surprised and shocked when God makes the tall tree low, and the dry tree flourish. God, teach us to love your ways, your values.
