New York jazz trombonist Nadav Nirenberg left his iPhone in a cab. He discovered through his tech savvy and an email tip that his iPhone app was being used by someone sending messages to women. Cunningly Nirenberg logged onto the app service from a computer and offered the man who now had his iPhone a date posing as a beautiful 24 year old women and included a photo he picked off the internet Google images. The trap was set and the “rat” went for the bait.
The thief arrived at the designated Brooklyn apartment, wine in hand and iPhone in his pocket. He was welcomed at the door by Nirenberg with a hammer in hand and quickly handed over the iPhone and made a record setting exit.
The lure of lust whether it be sex, fame or fortune is bait often with barbed hooks and hookers to bag many a sucker. Cheese or peanut butter are wonderful without a trap if they are not rotten or abused for self-interest. It is the choices we make that determine the consequence of freedom or entrapment. We are free to choose but we do not choose the consequences of those choices.
In the attempt to fill the emptiness in the quest for meaning and purpose in our lives we often look in the wrong places only to discover that the void cannot be filled with the temporary fixes, substances and relationships that satisfy or kill the pain only for the moment.
What if my lures were cures that flow from having the assurance of knowing why I am here, where I came from and where I am going? This author has searched and by a process of elimination found the real “Cheese” with no trap.
Pascal the great French physicist and philosopher and former atheist said, “There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man that only can be filled by God through Jesus Christ.” For honest seeker of truth this may be worth investigating as Christ made the incredible claim, ” I am the Way, the Truth and the Life and no man can come to the Father except by me.” The evidence demands a verdict.
“He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” Jim Elliot
Go for the ultimate “Cheese” without the trap and you will never walk alone, deal with guilt or be sorry.
