Week 5 | Day 5- Thinking Before We Choose(Rooted Honey)

This week, we’ve been learning how God helps us make wise choices.
We’ve learned what wisdom is, where wisdom comes from, and how prayer helps guide our decisions.

Today, we’re learning an important step in making wise choices:

Wise choices begin when we slow down and think before we act.

God helps us pause, consider what is right, and choose wisely instead of rushing.

“The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.”
Proverbs 21:5

This verse reminds us that careful thinking and planning help us make wise choices.

Today’s Truth:

Wisdom grows when we slow down.

Rushing often leads to regret.
Slowing down allows us to think, pray, and seek God’s guidance.

Wise choices often begin with patience.

Prayer:

Dear God, Help me pause and think before I act.  Teach me patience and wisdom.  Amen.

Reflection Prompt:
Why do you think slowing down helps us make wiser choices?
