Mark 10:42 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.

When we work for any company, they are in charge of what we do – that is part of us working for them...

So if we are under the authority of someone else, we may be working against God’s ways without realising it.

We must always look to God for guidance on what we are doing and how we are working, whether it be in our own company or for someone else – God should always be the ultimate authority.

Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

None of us like to be proved wrong – but if we are willing to accept we can be wrong, we can learn more!

When the Sadducees tried to trip up Jesus with a point of law, Jesus answered them in a way where they were given a chance to accept they were wrong...

We need to take more notice of what God says then what the world says – God is the author of this world, we are the corrupters.

Proverbs 8:8 I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence; I possess knowledge and discretion.

We can all look back on good or bad choices and criticise the path we took – we learn from the outcomes of things which happen around us... or at least we should be learning!

Wisdom is accepting the truth and changing our lives to follow that truth and to steer clear of the bad things in life.

Sometimes we have to make the choice before we find out what happens – then we need to follow wisdom so the outcome is the best we can hope for!
