Getting Perspective
Jake looked around his office, slid his phone from his pocket, and texted his wife: “I got it!” While others at Jake’s company were being laid off, he was getting a promotion. “Let’s meet at …” he texted again, naming a nice restaurant. Jake was thrilled about the promotion and wanted to celebrate. Later, on his way to meet his wife, he rehearsed in his mind the actions he’d taken to get the promotion. As the two enjoyed their meal, he repeated to her what he’d rehearsed to himself. Yes, Jake was quite pleased with himself. He felt life was good, and he was finally on his way!
What is unbiblical about Jake’s thinking?
If you were Jake’s wife, what Scripture and biblical principles would you use to help him to think biblically?
How could you pray for your husband in this situation?
