Fantastic Friday #807 - Crafty

Crafty

11 The lowly he sets on high,
and those who mourn are lifted to safety.
12 He thwarts the plans of the crafty,
so that their hands achieve no success.
13 He catches the wise in their craftiness,
and the schemes of the wily are swept away. Job 5:11-13

Do you have experience with a crafty person? Someone who is cunning to gain an advantage or downright evil to have something come out in their favor. Our family has encountered an individual in the past couple of weeks that thinks they are being crafty, but in reality, their craftiness is just evil that impacts us in a negative way. I am not typically judgmental, but some things make me so angry. When I sit back and look at it, this person taking advantage of a situation and lying to benefit themselves personally can only bring temporary success, especially if you believe in God's Word. I believe in God's Word and His teachings and know that God will handle things like this in His own time. Until then, we just have to continue to trust and love God with all our hearts, and fight against the crafty people who take advantage of every situation that comes their way. We cannot get angry for things that are out of our control, but have to continually focus on good and treating others with respect and love.

Have a great weekend.

Matt
