Proverbs
2:12. “Wisdom will save you from evil
people, from those whose speech is corrupt.”
Oh! How I regret the years I
spent listening to corrupt speech and looking for fulfillment in the
environments conducive to this lifestyle.
The bar scene was exciting to me at one time and the people who
frequented these places seemed to be enjoying themselves and I longed to be a
part of this “party crowd”.
As I spent
time in this scene and learned more about the people, I realized their lives
were empty and mine was becoming the same way.
When a person is in this mode, it seems, you can never get enough. The nights aren’t long enough and you never
feel satisfied because it is unfulfilling.
I believe it was God’s gentle
hand that guided me away from this empty life.
He helped me see the futility of it all.
As I yielded to him and let go of the worldly ways, I
learned to embrace the road that led to God. I began to feel free and content. My desires changed from searching for “fun”
to searching for the root of wisdom, which is in God. He has filled me with his wondrous peace,
joy, wisdom and total fulfillment since I have turned my eyes and heart to
him. Praise His name.
Prayer for
today: Heavenly Father, I am so grateful that you are the answer to life and in
that , we can ask for wisdom and receive it.
Thank you for providing everything I need, all my needs are in you. Help me to show your love and grace to
others. In Jesus name, Amen.
