The poll question was:

"Now that the GCCS has voted to transfer the Roethli properties to Gasconade County thereby eliminating that excuse for NOT constructing the courthouse emergency access road, what new excuses will Commissioners Jost and Lairmore offer for NOT moving ahead?"

Your responses were as follows:
  1. Starting road construction in the winter is not a good idea. 0 (0%)
  2. The county road department employees cannot be freed up for this project due to other priorities. 2 (10%)
  3. The county's budget is tight and money is not available at this time. 8 (42%)
  4. The state will not grant a permit to construct the new entrance from Hwy. 100. 2 (10%)
  5. Missouri S&T engineering student, Horace Brown, has graduated and will not be available to manage the road construction project. 0 (0%)
  6. The Mayan calendar indicates the world will come to an end on 12/21/2012 rendering it unwise to begin construction until we know for sure that we will all be alive after that date. 6 (31%)
  7. Shot rock is very expensive. We need to pay off Commissioner Lairmore's and former Commissioner Aubuchon's legal bills first. 4 (21%)
  8. All of the above. 5 (26%)
  9. None of the above. 0 (0%)
Total votes: 19 (100%)

Thanks to all who voted!

Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. – Proverbs 3:7-8

One of the challenges of learning is that we can think that we know more than we actually do. But this proverb tells us that as we take a different posture to the things that we think that we know, we open ourselves up to new information that can be “tipping points” for us. There is little benefit to being wise in our own eyes, so humility is a necessity with knowledge. Humility keeps the fear of the Lord in front of us AND opens our ears and eyes to the wonderful things that others bring to our lives. Take some time and ask questions of those around you. You might be amazed at how different perspectives can revitalize you and give you new strength.
