Reading – Proverbs 19

Highlight Verse:

“People ruin their lives by their own foolishness and then are angry at the Lord.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭19‬:‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I know this one to be true because, frankly, been there – done that.

We’ve all done foolish things. The hard part is recognizing who is responsible for the consequences.

I know it was my foolishness that put me through hard financial times. And I’m sure I played a part in the end of my first marriage.

While I never lost faith in the Lord, I did have my share of grumpy prayers and “why me”s.

Fortunately for me, grace has brought me out of those situations, strengthened my faith, restored my finances and given me an amazing wife.

Do you have stories of how God restored you from your foolish acts?
Can you share them (while keeping appropriate confidences)?
