“At the end of your life, you will lament when your physical body has been consumed, and you will say, “How I hated discipline, and how my heart despised correction. I didn’t obey my teachers or listen closely to my instructors. I am on the verge of complete ruin before the entire community.””
Proverbs 5:11-14 CSB
What a chilling result of not following Jesus: life in ruins, body falling apart, depressed and despised by everyone around. Not just because you didn’t listen to the Word of God, but solely because you only listened to yourself. All of the choices, based on what you thought were…OK, maybe not the best but OK. Never seeing where the road leads…until suddenly you wake up to this reality!
Lord, help me to see the end of the road I am traveling! Open my eyes, awaken my heart and give me joy in following You! I am so blessed that You love me enough to paint the picture of the alternative to joyfully fallowing You in peace, love and contentment.
