Proverbs

Описание: What would you do if you arrived home one day to find the walls of your house gone? Everything else is still in place, but the walls are missing. What would happen? Your stuff might get wet or stolen, and you might have trouble sleeping out of fear. Scripture tells us that just as walls protect things, we too need a wall of protection.

Join us on Day 25 of our series #GetWisdom as we dig into Proverbs 25.

As you may already know, I have the privilege of being a motivational speaker in public schools through Hello Mr. Brown and the Choose Well program. I get to do assemblies and classroom visits and sometimes some one-on-one mentoring, but my favorite is small group talks. I often end up talking with a group of boys about how to make good choices and have self-control. I often tell them this: if you don’t control yourself, someone will have to control you for you.

This relates to our verse today. Proverbs 25:28 – “A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.” We often tend to be very impulsive. We think something and we do it; we think it, and we do it. We don’t think about the consequences until later. So when I speak to kids, I try to encourage them to think about the consequences beforehand. It’s kind of like playing chess: you need to strategize, understand what your opponent’s future moves might be, and most importantly, plan your own next moves carefully.
