7 If my step has turned from the way,
my heart has followed my eyes,
or impurity has stained my hands,
8 let someone else eat what I have sown,
and let my crops be uprooted. (Job 31:7-8 CSB)

We have a choice, actually many choices. We can make good choices or bad choices. We have free will and the ability to make our own decisions in this life.

But what do our choices lead us to?

Are they improving our life or the lives of those around us? Or are they simply setting us up for someone else to take advantage of what we have done?

Our steps must be guided by the Spirit and our wisdom for decision making supported by scripture. Without these two things we are not setting up for our best life. We may be uprooted and others may gain the profit from our labor.

We must strive to be the best version of ourselves possible.
