Day 185 Please God | Proverbs 16:7-8

Send us Fan MailPlease God7 When people’s lives please the Lord,     even their enemies are at peace with them.8 Better to have little, with godliness,     than to be rich and dishonest.Verse 7Our lives should please God. We should do the things that are right. We should respect God.God can cause our enemies to become our friends. This does not always happen immediately. First, we ourselves must become friends of God. God accepts us because Jesus died for us. See Ephesians 2:13-14 and John 14:27.Verse 8Most Christians are not wealthy. See 1 Corinthians 1:26. We may have few possessions. However, we should earn our money fairly. God helps the poor man who is honest. God will punish the rich man who is not honest.The first proverb assures us that if we try to obey God’s commandments, He will watch out for us and protect us from those who want to cause us harm.Verse 8 tells us that money isn’t everything. It doesn’t say that having a lot of money is bad, but getting money through unjust means is wrong. In other words, when making money, if you have the choice between making a lot through bad means or making a little through just means, always choose the just way.Let me ask you: What should you do if you work for a company that operates immorally, even if it is legal?

Should you report the company and risk losing your job?If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth. Real moments.
