9 men seeking wisdom gathered at Chickfilet to see if the Cow could explain humility! The Cow had nothing to add, but Proverbs 29 had plenty to feed us.

As we circled around to discuss “The Word” this week, we found in Proverbs 29 kicked up some of the language a notch, by using works like havoc, hate, rage and ruin. Throughout Proverbs we have been told, it is not God’s plan that leads us to bad places, but our own decisions. We need to seek the Lord, surround ourselves with good councilors, and make decisions wisely….not in haste!

Some Key verses this week:

1 He who is often reproved, yet stiffens his neck,

will suddenly be broken beyond healing.

When we refuse to change our ways or repent, which means turn away from, we endanger ourselves beyond any bounds.

11 A fool gives full vent to his spirit,
but a wise man quietly holds it back.

How many time do you hear, Think before you speak? Let’s slow down and use our minds before our words get us in trouble.

20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?

There is more hope for a fool than for him.

More of verse 11, don’t let words fill you with regret or guilt. Be wise with the tongue.

23 One’s pride will bring him low,

but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

Pride will lead to humility eventually because our pride will bring us to our knees…. ”I can do it!” Go in with Humility first and you will be honored and respected by all.

Great group discussion today. Guys are really helping one another and sharing insights and views. The Word is coming alive at Game Plan for sure.
