Proverbs for the Day
"Many crave and seek the ruler's favor, but the wise man (waits) for justice from the Lord."
Sometimes I'll focus on pleasing too many constituencies. Not unlike a Congressman who has to take into account representational,
attitudinal, and organizational considerations when voting, I have to make decisions that may or may not displease administration,
students, co-workers, friends, professors, and even myself. This Proverb reminds me to simply do my best in all that I do
for the sake of His Glory. It's simple reasoning. On that final day, when I have to give an account for my life and my deeds,
I will have to defend my actions not unlike a lawyer in front of Supreme Court justices.
My prayer is that God will grant me a writ of certiorari.
