Good morning and Praise the Lord everybody for today is the day that I will rejoice and be glad in it! ( Happy Favour Friday ) Prudence A word we dont hear much about today is prudence. It means careful management: economy. In the Bible, prudence, or prudent, means being good stewards or managers of the gifts God has given us to use. Those gifts include time, energy, strength and health, even material possessions. They include our bodies, as well as our minds and spirits. Just as each one of us has been given a different set of gifts, each of us has been given different levels of ability to manage those gifts. Too many people burn themselves out, constantly using their gifts and abilities in ways that God did not intend them to. Instead of pushing ourselves too hard to please others or reach our own personal goals, we need to listen to God and do what Hes telling us is wise. Trying to impress people and live up to their standards isnt prudence. Prudence means asking God how He wants you to use your gifts and then obeying. Learn Gods prudence today and put it into practice so you can enjoy your life the way He intended. Prayer Starter: God, I desire to be a good steward of all that Youve given me. I decide now to only use my gifts and abilities for You. Show me how to use them with Your prudence and wisdom. Proverbs 16:21 Have a Blessed Day ;-)
