Day 301 Sparrows and Horses | Proverbs 26:1-3

Send us Fan MailSparrows and Horses1 Honor is no more associated with fools     than snow with summer or rain with harvest.2 Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,     an undeserved curse will not land on its intended victim.3 Guide a horse with a whip, a donkey with a bridle,     and a fool with a rod to his back!Honor isn't meant for a fool. In Proverbs, a fool isn't someone with low intelligence, but someone who disobeys God's commandments and makes fun of His laws.Verse 2 is encouraging because it reminds us that when we follow God's will, some people may try to stop us or criticize our efforts, but their words won't have any lasting impact.Verse 3 uses humor, but it's a warning: if I don’t want to be punished, I need to avoid rebelling or mocking God's commandments.This means I must carefully study the Bible to understand what God wants. Not knowing God's commandments isn't an excuse for disobeying them.Think about it: ignoring or mocking God's laws is unwise and, according to the Scriptures, makes a person a fool.If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
