Prudence
Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,
and blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord.
The wise in heart
are called discerning, and gracious words promote instruction.
Prudence is a
fountain of life to the prudent, but folly brings punishment to fools.
The hearts of the
wise make their mouths prudent, and their lips promote instruction.
Gracious words are
a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
There is a way that
appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.
Proverbs
16:20-25
How long did it take you to realize you were out of your league?
We sometimes think we know more than God. But we are always shown that is not
the case, and He does it lovingly.
It is crazy to reject God’s plan of salvation because we think
we know better. Only by placing our trust in Christ for the forgiveness of our
sins can we be reconciled to God. Are you still trying to do things your own
way, thinking you know best?
Jesus is not
one of many ways to approach God, nor is He the vest of several ways;
He is the
only way.
