Have you heard of the law of unintended consequences? A prime example of this is what is known as the cobra effect. During British colonial rule in India,the government became concerned about the high number of cobras in the country. In order to combat this, they put a bounty on the snakes. Unfortunately, enterprising people began breeding the snakes so they could kill them and then collect the money. When the program was ended due to this abuse, the breeders simply released the snakes and now there were more than when they started! There was a problem that God saw before he created the world. That problem required a solution. Thankfully, God's solution not only dealt with the problem but it also had an intended consequence that involves you and me. ![]()
