FROM TODAY'S READING...
“The better ambitions have to do with the development of character and ability, rather than status and power. Status you can lose. You carry character with you wherever you go, and it allows you to prevail against adversity.”
Jordan B. Peterson
Proverbs 10:9 (NLT) People with integrity walk safely, but those who follow crooked paths will be exposed.
Proverbs 11:3-6 (NLT) Honesty guides good people; dishonesty destroys treacherous people. Riches won’t help on the day of judgment, but right living can save you from death. The godly are directed by honesty; the wicked fall beneath their load of sin. The godliness of good people rescues them; the ambition of treacherous people traps them.
Proverbs 22:1, 3, 5 (NLT) Choose a good reputation over great riches; being held in high esteem is better than silver or gold...
A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences...
Corrupt people walk a thorny, treacherous road; whoever values life will avoid it.
