A Trusted Reference Point · Checking Yourself With Wisdom
Meaning
"Therefore, let scripture be your guide in determining what should and should not be done. Knowing what the scriptures teach, you should act accordingly."
Explanation
When your own judgment feels clouded by desire or emotion, it helps to have a trusted, time-tested reference point to check yourself against. Wisdom traditions exist precisely to offer that outside perspective when we need it most.
Today's Life Lesson
When you're unsure today, check your choice against a trusted wisdom tradition rather than relying only on clouded feelings.
