TAKING A STAND
Today's reading: Proverbs 19

"Zeal without knowledge is not good; a person who moves too quickly may go the wrong way." Proverbs 19:2 NLT

What are you currently taking a stand on?

Where is it you have dug in your heels?

Have you drawn a line in the sand?

Are you steadfast and unmovable in regards to something everyone else is against?

Have you studied about it? Prayed about it? Asked God about it? Paused and thought about it?

There are times when the stands we take are wrong. Yes, wrong. Rushed into and not thought about, wrong.

We've got to slow down and get God's opinion before we put on the t-shirt, walk in the rally or sit down in protest.

It may not be our stand to take. It may not be our time to take the stand. It may not be where God wants you spending our energy or using our talents. It may not, at this time or in that way, bring Him glory.
