Monday
How many times (all you parents out there) wish that your children would learn from your mistakes instead of having to learn the hard way? But yet it seems like we don’t. We see other people doing something stupid and will even comment on it, and then turn around and do the same dumb thing or something similar.
What about this scenario of the adulteress screams “don’t go there”, and yet why do we find so many people getting involved in relationships outside their marriage? There’s a song by Casting Crowns that’s called “Slow Fade”, and it speaks to this issue of unfaithfulness. You see often it isn’t a quick decision but more like letting your guard down a little at a time until you fall into temptation.
If you have known someone, or yourself have had an affair with someone, you know the problems that it brings to everyone around. If we know these things then why aren’t we smart enough to avoid them.
I don’t know about you but I would rather find favor from the Lord and learn before I make a mistake. And how do you do that? Heed wisdom’s calls. Learn by watching others, learn by reading God’s Word.
Heeding Wisdom’s call
