17 | Devotion

And then finally you’ll admit that you were wrong and say, “If only I had listened to wisdom’s voice and not stubbornly demanded my own way, because my heart hated to be told what to do! Why didn’t I take seriously the warning of my wise counselors? Why was I so stupid to think that I could get away with it? Now I’m totally disgraced and my life is ruined! I’m paying the price— for the people of the congregation are now my judges.”
Proverbs 5:12‭-‬14 TPT

Ganyan naman tayo kapag nagawa na ang mali, kapag nagbunga na ng sin, tsaka magsisisi. Tsaka sasabihing, sana nakinig na lang pala ako; sana di ko na pala ginawa; sana lumayo na lang ako para di ako nasaktan. Ayann, iyan tayo e. Alam naman nating mali, ba't pa natin ginagawa? Kasi di natin malabanan ang temptation. Kasi sa temptation tayo nakatingin, hindi sa kung ano ang magiging resulta.

Choose wisdom. — Dun ka sa tamang gawain na may tamang resulta.
Learn to listen to your wise companion/leader. — Dun ka makinig sa tama.

Sobrang halaga ng wisdom kaya naman kung alam nang mali, 'wag na piliin. Kung sinabihan na ng leader, 'wag na sumuway. Para di ka mag-come up sa linyahang: "My life is ruined." "I'm paying the price."

Kasama mo si Lord. Sa Kanya ka magtiwala at magfocus para malabanan mo ang temptations sa paligid.

"When you are surrounded by temptations, know first that you are surrounded by the presence of God."
