The Book of Sirach Ch 19 v- 24

24 Better are the God-fearing who have little understanding than those of great intelligence who violate the Law.

Today Sirach is sharing with you the importance of being God-fearing, even if one has little understanding, as opposed to those who may have great intelligence but choose to violate the Law. For being God-fearing means having a deep respect and reverence for God, and living in accordance with His Teachings and Commandments. We come to understand that life is about recognizing that there is a higher power at work in our existence while striving to live a life that is pleasing to Him. Naturally, we do make mistakes in this endeavor and we always seek to say I’m sorry rather than disobey the Law of the Lord and fight back without grace unable to grow or learn.

While intelligence is certainly a valuable trait, it is not the ultimate measure of a person's character. A person may be highly intelligent, but if they choose to violate the Law and live a life of disobedience, their intelligence becomes meaningless. On the other hand, someone with little understanding who is God-fearing and obedient to His Will is living a life that is truly fulfilling and meaningful. God-fearing individuals understand the importance of humility, obedience, and living a life of integrity. They know that it is better to follow God's guidance and trust in His plan, rather than relying solely on their own intellect and understanding.

In contrast, those who violate the Law may think that they are above the rules and can live according to their own desires and whims. However, they will ultimately face the consequences of their actions and may find that their intelligence cannot save them from the judgment of God. I urge you to prioritize your life to be God-fearing above all else. Trust in God's wisdom and guidance, and live a life that is pleasing to Him. In doing so, you will find true peace, fulfillment, and blessings beyond measure. Amen.

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. The Lord’s Prayer.

At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.

I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen Son in Law Mark Stern; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. We pray for Holy Mother Church. Our prayers for our niece Brittany. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Understanding little ok**

Those who fear God are better

Understanding little ok

Intelligence great are law violators

Fear God not they destroy instead of obey
