📌 WHAT IT MEANS TO BE PRUDENT
📖"The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of fools is deception. PROVERBS 14:8 (NIV)
In the Bible, being prudent means, in part, “being good stewards or managers of the gifts and resources God has given us to use.” Those gifts include time, energy, strength, health, and even material possessions. They include our bodies as well as our minds and spirits. Being a good steward of your mind means giving thought to what you are doing, where you are going, what you are thinking about, and who is leading you. Amos 5:13 says that a prudent person knows when to keep quiet. Good stewardship of our words is a gift that we all need to work on developing! King Solomon in all of his wisdom said, “The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it” (Proverbs 22:3 ESV). Each of us needs to know our limits and be able to recognize when we are approaching them. Instead of pushing ourselves past what we know we can comfortably handle, we need to listen to and obey what God is telling us to do. If He wants us to stop before we get angry, or take a break before we get frustrated, or think before we say something we will later regret, then we should do so! We must follow His wisdom if we really want to enjoy blessed lives.
🙏🏻PRAYER FOR TODAY: God, help me be a good steward of my thoughts, words, actions, and attitudes. Teach me to hear from You and to obey Your Word immediately so that I can enjoy my life! Amen.
