As a planner, this verse appeals to me. I’m the kind of guy who loves casting a vision, building a plan to make that vision a reality, then executing the plan. I know that when an organization (a company, a non-profit, a church, a family) has no vision from leadership, the people inside get lost and they “perish.”

Scripture: “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18)
