Discerning the Times

Luke 12:54-56 
54 Then He also said to the multitudes, “Whenever you see a cloud rising out of the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming’; and so it is. 55 And when you see the south wind blow, you say, “There will be hot weather’; and there is. 56 Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time?

Why do many seem to be weather prediction experts, yet fail to see the times around us?  There are signs of increasing lawlessness and declining morality and civility, but no grand speeches explaining what will happen tomorrow or next week.  Global warming fuels discussions, but God's right to rule and judge His creation and the consequences of sin we reap daily do not.  Nor do these times seem to allow speaking of the cure for the global heart cooling - good news of a deliver in Jesus.
