A Pair of Proverbs
So after a week of nonsensical posts on whatever popped into my head at the time I think that I will pass on something a little more meaningful:
Proverbs 19
20 Get all the advice and instruction you can, and be wise the rest of your life.
21 You can make many plans, but the LORD's purpose will prevail.
Wow, talk about a couple of sentences that can change your outlook on life!
The first one can seem trite but in reality if we make this a goal it will go a lot easier for us. If we simply listen to those that have gone before us I think that we will avoid many mistakes in relationship, ministry, and just overall life.
The second in my mind just comes back to humility. If when making a plan we merely realize this uncomplicated truth in humility we can again avoid the heartache of disappointment. God has control and he won’t “drop the ball” and he never says “oops I didn’t mean for that to happen”.

So basically: submit to authority, because you are stupid. Even tho you think you aren't, you really are, you just don't know it.
