Today we reflect on the character of Jesus as the "Wonderful Counselor," contrasting the fleeting happiness provided by worldly institutions with the lasting peace found in Christ amid life’s chaos and challenges. We see the transformative power of worship and meditation in times of trouble, as well as the hope and light offered by God in dark situations. Finally, we will learn the responsibilities of governing and the failures of human counsel, affirming that true wisdom resides in Christ, who invites the weary to find rest in His guidance.
