A rich mine of Common Sense


God makes wisdom and Common Sense freely available to everybody. If you receive it and you apply it to your life you will grow as individual. If you live an honest life and are loyal to God, He will take special care of you. You will be able to make better decisions. You will see the danger before it is too late. You will distinguish a good and wise friend from a loser that gives you directions when he himself don’t know where he is going.   

And here’s why: God gives out Wisdom free,
   is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding.
He’s a rich mine of Common Sense for those who live well,
   a personal bodyguard to the candid and sincere.
He keeps his eye on all who live honestly,
   and pays special attention to his loyally committed ones.
9-15 So now you can pick out what’s true and fair,
   find all the good trails!
Lady Wisdom will be your close friend,
   and Brother Knowledge your pleasant companion.
Good Sense will scout ahead for danger,
   Insight will keep an eye out for you.
They’ll keep you from making wrong turns,
   or following the bad directions
Of those who are lost themselves
   and can’t tell a trail from a tumbleweed,
These losers who make a game of evil
   and throw parties to celebrate perversity,
Traveling paths that go nowhere,
   wandering in a maze of detours and dead ends.
(Prov.2:6-15 MSG)

Prayer: Thanks for the free wisdom available to us. Thanks for Common Sense. Help me to live an honest life, to be loyal to You. Thanks for the light You gave me that is helping me to make good decisions in life. Thanks for protecting me from bad advices from people that don’t know themselves where they are going. Th
anks for Jesus, that opened the way for everybody to connect with You.
