Get Real November 9 Devotional
November 09, 2024
PSALM 1:1 | Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path that sinners tread, or sit in the seat of scoffers.
The world is full of advice! Self-proclaimed experts and determined sales people and politicians and teachers and parents and pastors and friends—all offer advice. Who do you listen to?
Some advisors are wicked. They intend to manipulate or harm us, to take our resources or diminish our lives.
Some offer examples of ways to live that lead to dead ends, encouraging us to indulge every passion or find our freedom in breaking rules or conforming to the wrong authorities.
Some are hyper-critical, destroying the integrity of people and traditions and practices through criticism that becomes cynicism. For them nothing is sacred or beautiful or true. Avoid these advisors.
Who do you listen to?
