My very favorite book of the Bible is Proverbs because there is so much wisdom and I like to read the proverb of the day--today is May 25 so I read Prov. 25. Here's the small bit of wisdom I pulled out:
Proverbs 25:8 "Don't jump to conclusions--there may be a perfectly good explination for what you just saw." (Msg)
How often we jump to conclusion based on our small minded knowledge when we really should take a step back and look at the bigger picture before we react. I know I do it a lot and this is a reminder to take a breath before I react to something I see.
Have you ever heard an argument and assumed one of your children started it because 99% of the time they are the one who usually starts it? Don't jump to conclusions-ask questions and find out what happened...you might be surprised...
