Here is today’s Bible reading:  Judges 9:22-10:18;  Luke 24:13-53; Psalm 100:1-5; Proverbs 14:11-12.

Proverbs 14:12 (NIV)
There is a way that seems right to a man,
but in the end it leads to death.

Left to ourselves, we will destroy ourselves.  And what’s worse, while we do it, we will think we are so wise.  How foolish.  Thank God He sent His Son to save us from our sinful selves.  Our remedy is found in today’s NT reading:

Luke 24:45 (NIV)
Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.

May God open he minds of the lost to see the Truth of Scriptures and the reality of their lostness.
