Today I would like to look at Ecclesiastes 7 verse 5
5)It is better to have wise people reprimand you than to have stupid people sing your praises.
It is better to hear honest criticism, than to receive compliments from a fool. Honest criticism will build you up and you will learn from it.
I hope you have a wonderful day. May God Bless you.
Soli Deo Gloria
Excellent religion post
Thank you for the sharing post
@rynow,
God bless you and your family for sharing this great verse from Bible!
Amen~
Praise is like a drug, we receive a little and unless we are conscious of the ill effects (pride) we thoughtlessly seek more, regardless from whom or for what.
I used to wonder why christians gave all credit to God, even if God orchestrates all things (which I believe He does), the person still did the actions, so why not take credit? I think in part the answer is because God is the source of the power which enabled the victory, but also because of what we are discussing here, to avoid seeking praise and stroking ego and fanning the flames of pride.
As Rick Warren said, the right position of humility is as they say, not to think less of yourself, but to think of yourself less. And this goal is set aside when we listen to the praise of fools.
Good quote. thanks for sharing.
Amen, thank you very much for the great comment.
We will be sharpen in the process instead of staying in our comfort zone. Proverbs 27:17 (NIV) As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.
Beautiful words, our thoughts and words about Jesus should be respectful. Amen! Peace to your home Gloria! thank you my dear friend @rynow.i appreciate your great thought..
