Day 17

When we lean upon our own reason rather than on God's clear commands, we run counter to the design of the universe. The theory that the end justifies the means may be part of man's order, but it is not part of the eternal scheme

Proverbs 3:5-6

New King James Version (NKJV)

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,

And lean not on your own understanding;

6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He shall direct[a] your paths.

Day 16

No matter how effective and important a man may be, his time and work on this earth are limited. How gratifying, therefore, to know that though God buries His workman. He always carries on His work.

John 8:58

New King James Version (NKJV)

58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
