Proverbs 5:21 (NKJV) => For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, And He ponders all his paths.
throughout this whole chapter, Solomon is warning his son about the temptations of women other than his wife. But in the midst of this speech, he stops and gives this statement. When I read this verse, I thought of my earlier conversations with friends. I had told them that I wonder if God ever looks down from Heaven and asks Himself what we are doing as a body of Christ. We are split into denominations that argue over "important" things like which days are holy and how a service is to be held. I had the thought about a comment a pastor once said, that he had seen a church 'family' break apart because they couldn't agree on a carpet color. How much more are we, as God's Family, fighting over 'the color of a carpet' or 'the texture of the wallpaper'?
Lord please help me to remember what Your priorities are and what is just carpet and wallpaper. Amen.
So true so many over look. Think their way is the only way
