Out of the box

Recently, I’ve been trying a few things that are out of the box. One might consider them strange while another ingenious.

I’m not someone who throws caution to the wind and usually jumps in with both feet. I stick a toe in to test the water and check the reaction. My heart is not to do something foolish just for the thrill.

I often think of two different verses:

Proverbs 4:7
Wisdom is the principal thing;
Therefore get wisdom.
And in all your getting, get understanding.

1 Corinthians 10:23
All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful;
all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.

It seems these verses contradict, but they balance. I want to make informed decisions according to Gods word. Sometimes I may be able to do something and it may not be sin but is it wise?
