Monday, August 31: Whoever seeks good finds favor
Read Proverbs 11:27-28
Whoever seeks good finds favor,
but evil comes to one who searches for it.
Those who trust in their riches will fall,
but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.
Reflect
The world tells us how we should live our lives, what we should seek: money, power, sex. But God's way is more straightforward. How do these proverbs tell us to live our lives?
Respond
Take a moment to envision how your life might look different if you were more consistent at seeking good. Then ask God to put you on the path toward that life.
