Sinopse
King Joash of Judah starts strong, repairing the Temple with God's guidance, but after his mentor dies, Joash takes a dark turn. This story explores the importance of lasting wisdom and what happens when we stray from the right path.What immediately stands out in the telling of King Joash’s story is how very young he is when he becomes king. We are also told that right by his side as his mentor, advisor and guide is a godly spiritual leader by the name of Jehoiada. Jehoida’s good and wise influence has its effect on young King Joash and we read that Joash ``did'' what was right in the Lord’s sight. What a promising start for this young king! How is it possible for someone who seems so good, who did so much good, only to do so much bad and end so badly?Key Takeaways:Joash's reign highlights the importance of mentorship in developing good character.Staying true to your values requires constant effort, even after a strong start.True wisdom comes from a higher power, not just from ourselves.2 Kings 12:1-2 // Tom
