Proverbs 3:7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.
When you do something wrong, how many times do you try to cover it up by bending the truth, failing to admit it or just plain lies?
God wants us to leave this way of living behind and to look to Him for guidance in wisdom and love.
He wants us to trust in Him and to obey what He asks so we can have the best chance at getting our lives right this time!
