Observe Life Well

Psalm 106:3

Blessed are those who observe justice, who practice righteousness at all times.

This Proverb writes about someone who saw someone’s field that was messy and full of weeds. That field belonged to a lazy man. The writer was observant and concluded that laziness was the cause of this. He had witnessed the consequences of being lazy and he could actually learn from that lazy man. Whenever he sensed that he himself was being lazy, this lesson would be there in the back of his mind to remind and correct him.

You and I can actually learn wisdom from other people’s mistakes. When we see someone’s mistakes, it should be a warning for us so that we won’t make the same mistake. If we pay attention to the little things that we observe in life and meditate upon the significance of them, we can actually learn great lessons and gain wisdom.

Your life is more than just your social media or your mobile phone. Keep your eyes open and observe life wisely. There are plenty of good things that can be learned from everyday life. 

Prayer

Dear God, I open my eyes to observe the things around me. I am eager to keep learning and gain more wisdom every single day. Amen.
