Tuesday's Verse of the Day Devotional

Good morning! Wisdom knows how to read a situation and how to proceed in a godly way that leads to restoration. When someone sins, knowledgeable people will give a litany of reasons and Scriptures to point the fault but spiritual people full of wisdom will do what it takes to restore someone, not just point out the fault.

It's not about being right, because all have sinned and fallen short. Just because it isn't you at the moment doesn't mean you won't at some point. The key to restoration is doing it in the spirit of gentleness.

Gentleness in correction can lead a person to repentance and restoration more than legal dogma ever would. Treat the person as you would want to be treated in the same situation. Otherwise you could become puffed up with a "holier-than-thou" attitude of religious pride and fall yourself. Put this verse into practice as you make a great day!
