Proverbs 10:21

The lips of the righteous nourish many, but fools die for lack of judgment. (Proverbs 10:21)

God’s wisdom and truth is readily available, but do we have ears to hear it? Sometimes, we don’t know what to do. However, it may be that we simply won’t do what we know we should actually do or have done. Whenever there is a problem, first look back to how that problem developed. Were we following God’s ways when the problem developed, or did we think we had it ‘covered’ with our own methods? We will often deceive ourselves into thinking that our ways are ‘necessary’ as God’s way is too weak to actually deal with a problem or unfairly requires too much effort on our part. However, our ways will ultimately create more problems than they will solve.
