lesson of the day!

"Young people in Singapore at one time aspired to have the five Cs:
Cash in the bank.
Career for the future.
Car to drive.
Condominium to live in.
Credit card to travel with. "

"A recent newspaper report indicated that there is now an updated version of the five Cs: Connectivity to be tuned in.
Choices, and the more the merrier!
Cheek—doing things our own way.
Causes, because it is hip to help.
Consumers who spend first and pay later."

château
chauffeur
chef cuisiner
cute
crêpes

Instead of the five Cs, Agur, the writer of Proverbs 30, asked for two Gs from God:
His grace and goodness.

He sought the grace of God to "remove falsehood and lies far from me" (v.8). He didn’t want to fall into the trap of believing that corrupt principles, practices, and affections are acceptable.

Agur also asked for the goodness of God to provide what he needed—no more and no less (vv.8-9). He was concerned that poverty could cause him to become covetous and to disgrace God’s name. But he also realized how easily riches could pamper him and cause him to deny the Lord.
