5. π Reflection
Every country uses textbooks in education to set learning standards. Some students excel beyond the curriculum, others struggle—but the textbook remains the benchmark.
Life has a textbook too: the Bible. It is God’s Word, the ultimate guide for faith and living. It teaches us what is good and exposes what is evil. It shows whether we live according to God’s will or follow our own sinful desires.
Dear friends, the world will tempt you with attractive principles and goals. But your only true guide is Scripture. It will be the standard by which your life is measured on the final day. Today, examine whether your choices and actions align with God’s Word.

Scriptures
π 10 You, however, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness, 11 my persecutions and sufferings that happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra—which persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me. 12 Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13 while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it 15 and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work (2 Tim 3:10-17, ESV).
