Proverbs 14-34
Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.
—Proverbs 14:34
Thoughts on the Verse
Wow, what an indictment. When we vote our pocketbook more than character and when we excuse the indiscretions, infidelities, and illegalities in the leaders of both political parties, we have reached a very sad state indeed! But before we rant and rave about the sad state of morality in our public officials, let's make sure we're honest in our own daily lives — that we don't say cruel things about others, that we remain faithful to our marriages and our purity vows, and let's make sure that we expect of ourselves higher standards than we do of others.
Prayer
God, you are not only the Almighty, you are holy, the LORD God Almighty. May the whole earth be filled with your glory and may that glory be shown in what we do and say. Forgive me of my own sin and hypocrisy. Bless me with purity, righteousness, and holiness as I pledge my life to your glory. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
