Royal Retching?

Royal Retching?

Proverbs 25:16 If you find honey, don't eat too much, or it will make you throw up.

Sweet = Not So Sweet

When does sweet not seem so sweet? When it becomes our ruler. Any great enjoyment in life can become the source of pain and rejection. Candy and cakes can bring illness. A little wine can turn into a full time habit. Fun on the boat fishing can become an obsession. Surfing the net can become a life robbing addiction. What started sweet can ruin your life.

UnSweeting

There is ability in Christ to break the not so sweet addictions into which we place ourselves, You. Some don't believe it. Some find it too magical for the Creator to involve Himself again with a creation's decision. He does. Of course, He would rather we not get into a trap of sweetness. But, He is determined to get our lives into the right motion and the right groove.

Balance

Much of the royal living instructions of Proverbs lean to balance. Enjoy life. Don't let it rule you. Be faithful to your commitments. Don't overcommit. Life is meant to be good and enjoyable and considerate of others around us. Too much of any one thing means leaving out something else that is probably more important to a friend or family member who gets shorted.

Prayer:

Father, pour balance over my life and the life of You.

When life is enjoyable give us discretion to enjoy just the right amount.

When life is painful give us relief that we don't look for the wrong answer or easy escape.

Bless You with a good day and a good way.
