The Stich #RTTBROS #Nightlight The Stich In Time "The prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished." - Proverbs 22:3 (KJV) There's an old saying that goes, "A stitch in time saves nine." This timeless wisdom reminds us that a small effort made early can prevent a much larger problem later. In our spiritual lives, this principle holds profound truth and can guide us toward a path of righteousness and peace. Consider the struggles of those battling addiction. While God's grace is powerful enough to deliver anyone from the clutches of alcoholism or drug dependency, the journey to recovery is often long and arduous. It requires immense discipline and leaves in its wake a trail of damaged relationships, compromised health, and spiritual wounds that need healing. Now, imagine if we applied the "stitch in time" thinking to our spiritual lives. By putting in the effort early to resist temptation and avoid harmful habits, we spare ourselves from the devastating consequences that come with addictions. It's far easier to never start drinking or experimenting with drugs than it is to overcome addiction once it has taken root. This principle extends beyond addiction to all areas of our spiritual walk. When we notice a small tear in the fabric of our faith – be it a white lie, a moment of gossip, or a hint of pride – it's wise to address it immediately. By doing so, we prevent that small rip from becoming a gaping hole that requires extensive mending. The Apostle Paul understood this concept well when he wrote: "But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." - 1 Corinthians 9:27 (KJV) Paul recognized the importance of constant vigilance and self-discipline in maintaining his spiritual health. He didn't wait for major issues to arise but worked proactively to keep his body and spirit in check. As we navigate our daily lives, let's remember the value of early, consistent effort in our spiritual journey. A few minutes of prayer each morning, regular Bible study, and intentional acts of kindness can fortify our spirits against the storms of life. These small "stitches" in the fabric of our faith can save us from the need for major spiritual repairs down the road. Let us be like the prudent man in Proverbs, foreseeing potential pitfalls and taking steps to avoid them. By doing so, we not only save ourselves from future hardships but also set an example for others, showing them the beauty and wisdom of a life lived in close communion with God. Remember, it's not about perfection, but about progress. Each small step taken in faith, each temptation resisted, and each moment spent in God's presence is a stitch that strengthens the tapestry of our spiritual lives. May we have the wisdom to act early, the courage to be consistent, and the faith to trust in God's guidance as we walk the prudent path. https://linktr.ee/rttbros Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros
