Protecting My Honor (Proverbs 20)
When it comes to protecting our honor, sometimes I think we’ve got it all wrong.
In the movies when someone wants to bait a character into a fight, they call them “Chicken.” Why does that work? I suppose because we think our reputation equals our honor. Proverbs 20 flips that logic on its head. “It is to one’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.” Apparently elevating your self-control is what brings honor, not other people’s opinions. Is that true of you? Let me put it this way, it’s better to be called “Chicken” than for God to call you a “Fool.”
