A God-loyal life is a full life. It is the life with most potential. God illuminates every step, you don’t need to stay in darkness. We tend to magnify the benefits of wealth and fear the consequences of financial shortage, but your financial situation will not make your life good or bad. You can be good or bad despite of your financial situation. Having a good or bad life still depends on your relationship with God.
Finally, the verse 10 warns us against know-it-all attitude. Humility and being teachable leads you to wisdom and gives you the right attitude that will allow God to work with you and in you.
A God-loyal life keeps you on track;
sin dumps the wicked in the ditch.
7 A pretentious, showy life is an empty life;
a plain and simple life is a full life.
8 The rich can be sued for everything they have,
but the poor are free of such threats.
9 The lives of good people are brightly lit streets;
the lives of the wicked are dark alleys.
10 Arrogant know-it-alls stir up discord,
but wise men and women listen to each other’s counsel.
(Prov.13:6-10 MSG)
Prayer: You bright my life with your presence and wisdom. Your words opens my eyes and let me see the truth. Your power and wise counsel protect me from sin. Wealth or poverty will not define me, You do. You are my God in all situations. Your presence is the most important thing in life. Nothing escapes You.
