“Listen to good advice if you want to live well, an honored guest among wise men and women. An undisciplined, self-willed life is puny.”
Proverbs 15:31-32 MSG – A verse of the day from the Bible presented in Eugene Peterson’s contemporary version called The Message. Accompanied by a personal reflection below.
Good advice is an honored guest, only sometimes we have trouble recognizing the guest, and think it to be a stranger or intruder. May it be that we find the discernment to recognize one from another. Interesting choice of word to describe an “undisciplined and self-willed” life: puny. It is the smallest of the small – a trivial, almost unseen thing.
