“The greatest tragedy of life is that there’s so much noise
that people can’t hear the things they really need to hear. God is trying
to get through to them with the voice of wisdom, but all they hear are the
confused communication clutter, foolish voices that lead them further away from
the truth,” my commentary began.
“Check carefully the path you’re on and don’t walk with the
wrong crowd … If you’re walking with the wrong crowd you’ll end up doing the wrong things. Don’t play with temptation, because
temptation always leads to a trap … When you disobey God by harming
others, you only harm yourself.”
“Anybody who makes it easy
for us to disobey God certainly isn’t a
friend.”
Father, anytime we think we don’t need Your wisdom, we are setting ourselves up to fail. Please help me to have discernment in all things, not falling for temptation
and taking the bait, but being able to see
that “flattery is manipulation –
people telling us things about ourselves that we enjoy hearing and wish
were true.” Remind me that the godly will be rooted in the place of Your
blessing.
Your Brother In Christ,
Gary Ford
