There are two times in a man’s life when he should not speculate: when he can’t afford it, and when he can.
– Mark Twain
Mark sure had that one right. He wasn’t much for the Word of God, but God didn’t create stupid. Common sense is not so common, and when we hear it, we’re amazed. How are you doing in that area? If you don’t have it, get an education in Bible principles or consider this prayer.
Proverbs 30:8-9
Remove falsehood and lies far from me;
Give me neither poverty nor riches—
Feed me with the food allotted to me;
Lest I be full and deny You,
And say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or lest I be poor and steal,
And profane the name of my God.
Just enough to get through is probably a safer goal. Give it some consideration.
