LOMBARDI Time Pro. 9:10 #Nightlight #RTTBROS

LOMBARDI Time Pro. 9:10 #Nightlight #RTTBROS
Vince Lombardi was a legendary coach who instilled discipline and respect in his players. He demanded that they arrive early, and if they were not 15 minutes early, they were considered late. Lombardi's strictness and training produced some of the best football players in history. In Proverbs 9:10, the Bible says, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding." Lombardi's coaching style reminds us of the importance of discipline and respect, but the fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom. The fear of the Lord is not a fear of punishment or retribution, but a reverence and awe for God. It is recognizing His power, His authority, and His holiness. When we fear the Lord, we acknowledge that He is the Creator of the universe, and we are His creation. Just as Lombardi demanded respect and obedience from his players, God also deserves our respect and obedience. He has given us His Word, the Bible, as a guide for our lives. When we follow His commands, we show our reverence for Him and our trust in His wisdom. As we seek to grow in wisdom, let us remember the importance of the fear of the Lord. Let us approach Him with reverence and awe, acknowledging His power and authority. And let us follow His commands, trusting in His wisdom and guidance for our lives.

Belling The Cat Pro 14:15 #Nightlight #RTTBRO

Belling The Cat Pro 14:15 #Nightlight #RTTBROS


"The simple believes every word, but the prudent considers well his steps." PRO 14:15

In Aesop's "Mice in Counsel," a group of mice gather to discuss how to deal with the threat of a cat. One mouse suggests putting a bell on the cat so they can hear it coming, but another mouse asks who will bell the cat. The mice realize that while the idea may sound good, it is not practical without a plan to execute it.

This story illustrates the danger of taking action without thinking it through. In Proverbs 14:15, it says, "The simple believes every word, but the prudent considers well his steps." It is important to carefully consider the consequences of our actions before we act.

Similarly, in Luke 14:28-30, Jesus teaches about the importance of planning before taking action. He says, "For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it?...lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him."

In conclusion, the story of the mice in counsel reminds us to think carefully before taking action and to consider the practicality of our plans. As Proverbs 19:2 says, "Also it is not good for a soul to be without knowledge, and he sins who hastens with his feet."
