When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful. Words alone will not discipline a servant; the words may be understood, but they are not heeded. There is more hope for a fool than for someone who speaks without thinking. A servant pampered from childhood will become a rebel. An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin. Pride ends in humiliation, while humility brings honor. If you assist a thief, you only hurt yourself. You are sworn to tell the truth, but you dare not testify. Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the LORD means safety. Many seek the ruler’s favor, but justice comes from the LORD. The righteous despise the unjust; the wicked despise the godly.

3 Days
Seeing the "Big Picture" of God's purpose for your life helps you to live it out. Often, though, we get trapped in the tyranny of the urgent and miss the view. Let NY-Times best-selling author Bruce Wilkinson serve as your personal purpose-coach in this 3-day reading plan.
This study will encourage the creation of a Christ-centered personal Mission Statement or Statement of Purpose that can be used as a “North Star” for navigating life. It will discuss having an eternal vision based on God’s purpose and priority.
In this three-day devotional, we will look at what it means to live with purpose. Aimless living is all too easy and is a sad waste of our precious lives. Why not take the next three days to unpack what it looks like to turn from the ways of the world, face God and begin to follow Jesus – on purpose.
