Give thought!

Proverbs 14: 15
A simple man believes anything, but a prudent man gives thought to his steps.
 
These wise words, tell us that maybe we should think through our actions, before we actually act.
One would agree, that the world is filled with people who are gullible and make very rash decisions.
 
In the Word of God, there are plenty warnings that call for deep discernment.
God will never tell us to live for the moment, but He would tell us to live moment by moment.
 
This word from the book of Proverbs, tell us that people with little spiritual depth, are in fact simple people.
They are the kind of folks that go with the flow, and don’t care much about living for God.
 
Do you know people who are easily deceived?
The Word of God says that they will believe just about anything—except the things of God.
 
The person however who is serious about their faith, gives strategic, discerning thought, day by day.
Before this kind of person can change their steps, they must change the way they think.
 
The person who trains their thoughts on God, wants to be different, not just act different.
Are you different? If you think like God thinks, as opposed to the way the world thinks, you’re a square peg in a round hole.
 
Walking as a disciple of Jesus, should include deep analysis way down deep inside our soul.
That’s where faithfulness begins, and foolish, simple thoughts end…
