ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHINGS
December 5, 2020

Scripture
: Proverbs 14:16
The wise are cautious and turn away from evil, but the fool throws off restraint and is careless.

Thought for the Day: I was looking up a piece of scripture a few days ago, but instead of turning to Proverbs 15, I turned to chapter 14. I couldn’t find what I was expecting, but I did stumble across these words. The scriptures speak of wisdom, yet it sounds a lot like common sense. Why is it that common sense is in such short supply these days? Why are we fighting over simple things like masks and social distancing? I’m all for freedom, but when someone’s lack of common sense endangers other people unnecessarily, is it really freedom? It sound more like what the author of the Proverbs described as foolishness. It is time to make common sense a bit more common.

Prayer: I know I’ve made more than one foolish decision, Gracious God, but I pray for the capacity to learn. I desire to be wise, and to bring an example of common sense to my community. Amen.
