Lean Not On Your Own Understanding
Our theological growth is not a race of human intellect or speed, but a journey of revelation dependent on the power of God.
While we compare ourselves like runners—some fast, others "hobbling" on crutches—Jesus does seem to flip this hierarchy by declaring that those who claim to see are blind, while the humble truly see. Spiritual maturity is not found in mastering human techniques, but in an open heart, obedience, and a total reliance on God to make us right with Him and others. By setting aside our own understanding and leaning on the Spirit, we find that God's grace meets us exactly where we are, regardless of our perceived limitations.
John 9:39: "Jesus said, 'For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.'"
Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."
1 Corinthians 1:27: "But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong."
If you find that you are playing this game "Sushi Go" then ill share what I am trying to understand about the strategy:
Card Tiers
T1 (High Priority): Squid Nigiri (3 pts), Wasabi (multipliers), early Chopsticks.
T2 (Situational): Sashimi (10 pts/3), Tempura (5 pts/2), Dumplings (scaling).
T3 (Low Priority): Maki Rolls (trap), Egg Nigiri (filler).
Pro Tactics
The Pudding Rule: Never have the least. Avoid the -6 point penalty at all costs.
Hate Drafting: Take a card an opponent needs to break their high-value sets.
Late Chopsticks: Use mid-round to grab two power cards before the trash remains.
Player Count Adjustments
2 Players: Focus on denial. Pudding has no negative penalty in this mode.
4-5 Players: Sets are difficult to complete. Prioritize consistent Nigiri and Wasabi.

A brief reminder that the feed @thefirm lunch room feed seems to be currently and sadly overrun with low productivity promotional material from other companies targeting max attention. Thank you for your consideration in refraining from posting another GM or "I won this" sort of thing.
