Discretion and understanding. Reading Proverbs 2:11-22 we see that these two things are what will help us to stay on the right path. We always have a choice in what we do, but as we’ve seen in these verses, there are evil people who are constantly trying to get us to follow them instead of Christ. We need both discretion and understanding to be able to resist and instead follow the path of righteousness. When we look at our life, would those two words characterize our decisions? If not, we need to come before God and repent and seek His wisdom so we can only move in the way that He would have for us

Quite true. Without praying for God’s wisdom, we shall be easily swayed by the knowledge of the world and the teachings of men. We shall be lost. To have understanding and discernment, we must stay close to God.

Yep! Some days it is easier than others, but God is faithful to us and we continue to be obedient to Him!
