Proverbs 19:20-21
20 Listen to advice and accept discipline,
and at the end you will be counted among the wise.
21 Many are the plans in a person’s heart,
but it is the LORD’S purpose that prevails.
I giggled over today’s verse, Proverbs 19:20-21, in the Message Bible.
20 Take good counsel and accept correction that’s the way to live wisely and well. 21 We humans keep brainstorming options and plans, but GOD’s purpose prevails.
I mean verse 20 is kind of a duh, you would think. However, we see everyday people ignoring that advice. Then we get to 21., “We humans brainstorm options.” Oh my goodness that is SO me. It is like I think I need to give God advice. Maybe He needs my good council, so He can live wisely and well. Really?!?!
I hope I am the only one that does this, but I am guessing I am not. Maybe together we can giggle the next time we worry and begin planning our way out. If you see me on the street cracking up laughing at nothing, I probably just asked God, “Have You
considered this option?” Good thing He is patient!
Thank You, Lord, for being so patient with me when I think I know what’s best.
