Daily Word
Proverbs 3:35 (New Living Translation) [A thought for thought translation]
35 The wise inherit honor, but fools are put to shame!
Proverbs 3:35 (New American Standard Bible) [A word for word translation]
35 The wise will inherit honor, But fools display dishonor.
Pastor’s Thoughts
It does not take a lot to see who is and who is not a fool. It also is not hard to see who is and who is not wise. Then there are the people who appear to be the in-between people. They at times display wisdom and at other times display foolishness.
We have all behaved foolish before. At least, I know that I have. We have all said something wise before. At least, I think that I have. Ha Ha
The truth is that God has made it clear repeatedly that there are consequences for behaving foolish and there are consequences for behaving wise.
Think of it more like cause and effect. God tells us that if we behave wise according to God’s Word than we will experience natural blessings. And He tells us that if we behave foolish (rebelling against His Word) then we will experience natural cursing’s.
Either we behave wise and take God at His Word or we behave foolishly and suffer the consequences.
The choice is yours.
Have a blessed Sunday everyone. Aim to grow at making more and more wise choices each day and less and less foolish choices each day. Here is a wise choice. Prioritize worshipping Jesus with a local church that preaches God’s Word without compromise.
