Scripture: Proverb 11:14
Where there is no guidance, a nation falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.
Thought for the Day: Proverbs are simple and to the point, and so I do not wish to give lengthy deliberation to these words. As I think about these thoughts, I ask myself: Where do I receive guidance and counsel? Do I seek out the advice of those who will give me what I already know, and in the end, only boost my ego? Or do I seek a diversity of thought, including the guidance of God and the great saints of the faith? We don’t just need “Yes” folks who give blessing to ridiculous thinking that could bring a nation down.
Prayer: Give me the courage, O merciful God, to be listen to those who can see just how wrong I truly am. Amen.
