Discernment works like "radar" in our lives!
Today’s PGem: 3:21- “My child, don’t lose sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them,” | 3:23- “They keep you safe on your way, and your feet will not stumble.”
Today’s PGem principle: We need the power of discernment in our lives! I combined 2 verses into the PGem because these verses work together! (We will discuss common sense another time.) Discernment (synonymous with insight) is essentially “the ability to look at a situation and understand the motivational factors behind something or see the underlying factors behind someone’s actions, behaviors and intentions.” (we really need this @ work/school don’t we?) When something is wrong, evil, or illegal – we recognize it almost immediately, however, as you become wiser; temptations and distractions become more subtle and sometimes actually look GOOD!
If we, as wise people study Proverbs and keep the PGems in a trusted PGRS (look in right column under tags and click “ready system”), discernment will keep us “safe on our way and keep our feet from stumbling….(in a trap” v. 26) So pray for, study for, and use discernment in your life at work, school, and in your relationships! IT WILL PROTECT YOU!!!!!
