Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil."
Proverbs 1:30-33
This seems like a good reminder for the end of the year. Eating the fruit of our own ways and being filled with our own devices is basically a curse here, because left to ourselves we tend to not do too well. Even things that seem great aren't going to work out well when we're not listening to the Lord.
This year, as we are turning over new leaves and endeavoring to make real changes in our lives, let's do this one thing and hearken to the Lord. As we do, he promises us safety and quietness in some good ways, and just learning to listen to God and tune into that frequency more often I think is one of the greatest changes that we can make in our lives... something that will really make a difference and help us to have a better year. :)
