Proverbs - Blame and Authority

Proverbs 28:2

For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.

When something goes wrong it seems like people tend to blame many people.  If something goes wrong at home or work the proper order of authority seems to be in a bit of confusion.  If there is to be a healthy environment, those in authority must know their place and rule with knowledge and understanding.  If our husbands have put us in charge of something and we fail in our responsibilities we should take the blame and seek to bring about a solution.  Do you know what you are in charge of?  Do you ever blame your husband for things you might have been lazy about?  Do you take time to understand and seek for knowledge to rule over the areas of responsibility you have been given?  To bless our homes, we must begin to take our duties seriously and trust that the state of our family will be prolonged as we are women of understanding and knowledge.
