Daily Verse: <\/strong>\u201c\u2026therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way and have their fill of their own devices.\u201d Proverbs 1:31<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter one of Proverbs ends with a warning.  People who despise wisdom will eat the fruit they produce.  In other words, actions have consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone ignores wisdom at some point or another.  In the fall of 2022, I rented a booth at a crafter\u2019s consignment store.  Rushing in without researching, I learned quickly that crafting requires more money and effort than I thought.  As a result, the expenses outweighed the profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Confessing to God my impulsive actions and commitment to learning from my mistakes resulted in a profitable outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seek wisdom at all costs.  Don\u2019t suffer from foolish decisions.  Instead, learn from those who go before you.  Find trusted mentors who can guide you on your journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Live in God\u2019s blessing as you earnestly pursue Him.<\/p>\n\n\n

Lord, thank You for rescuing us from our foolishness.  Help us to seek wisdom before acting.  Let us produce good fruit as we stay connected to You.  IJNIP.  Amen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
