Food for thought from the wisest of kings!
Ecclesiastes 10:1-6 (NLT)
1 As dead flies cause even a bottle of perfume to stink,
so a little foolishness spoils great wisdom and honor.
2 A wise person chooses the right road;
a fool takes the left one.
3 You can identify fools
just by the way they walk down the street!
4 If your leaders are angry at you, don’t quit! *
A quiet spirit can overcome even great mistakes.
--The Ironies of Life
5 There is another evil I have seen under the sun. Kings and rulers make a grave mistake
6 when they give great authority to foolish people and low positions to people of proven worth.
7 I have even seen servants riding horseback like princes—and princes walking like servants!
(Emphisis added and paraphrased)
*(Perservere in Truth)
Ask God for wisdom!
