The Power of Good Judgment
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.—James 1:5 (ESV)
He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed with no one’s regret. They buried him in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.—2 Chronicles 21:20 (ESV)
This verse is a cautionary tale—a bold message of how not to live—shown by King Jehoram’s wicked life. A purposeful journey is built on love and acts of service and is guided by faith.
Dear Lord, help me live my life guided by Your love. Help me prepare my heart so that I will follow You every step of the way.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.—James 1:5 (ESV)
But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.—Romans 8:25 (NIV)
“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.”—John 14:27 (NLT)
