You Can Lead A Horse To Water…
Proverbs 5:12-13
[12] And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; [13] And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
I had the opportunity this past weekend to caddie for my oldest daughter in a golf tournament. A caddie isn’t simply someone who will just carry the bag. They also gather numbers, test the wind, and make sure the player has as much information as possible in order to hit the best shot they can. It then is up to the player to execute the shot. If a player decides to ignore any of that information then they do so at their own risk.
We are given instructions and information from the Word of God also, but if we fail to adhere to it, we do so at our own risk. We don’t know what the next minute holds, much less the next week. God will show us instructions through His Word, through preaching, through prayer, through teachings from others. It is up to us to take what God teaches us and live our lives to the best of our abilities. God will set us up to be successful if we will follow after Him.
Do you take His instructions well, or do you seek to do things on your own?
God bless you today!
