Sober Minds Help Minimize Hazy Judgement

I once always associated the word sober with drunkenness. If someone mentioned the word, they were clearly talking to people that drank too much. But as I grew, I've come to realize the significance of sobriety in all areas of living. If I do not have a sober mind, then I have no focus and no direction. My thoughts and judgement are cloudy. I don't always make the best decisions in that state. So praying for God to direct my footsteps each day is even more essential.
