Haste Makes For Waste February 11, 2019

Proverbs 2:11 New International Version (NIV)

11 Discretion will protect you,
    and understanding will guard you.

While discretion and understanding are acquired through learning and experience, they are also a gift from God. But this gift doesn't come on demand. It comes from patiently seeking, trusting, and waiting on the Lord's guidance and from longing to live for him as a person of character.
