Daily musings, gripes, etc. (limit 3-5) 😏
- Proverbs 6:16-19 is a great passage for those wondering if you've violated that which God hates...perhaps repentance is in order?
- People will always show their true colors. Be patient. Wait for it. Swamp gas always rises to the surface. LOL
- Please continue to pray for guidance on relocation.
Proverbs 5:23 - He will die for lack of instruction, and in the greatness of his folly he will go astray.
Key words/phrases: context is tough for this one. Your thoughts? I think verses 21-23.
- die H4191 - death, destroy, kill, die prematurely
- lack of instruction/discipline H4148 chastisement, chastening, reproof, warning, doctrine, rebuke, correction, punishment
- greatness of his folly H200 silliness
- astray H7686 mislead, transgress, err
What does it say (in my own words)? Ignoring God's wisdom takes you to a very bad place.
What does it mean? This chapter is titled The Pitfalls of Immorality in my Bible. So while this deals with immorality, the principle can apply to many other areas.
Study Questions:
- What happens to men who ignore instruction? Remember, obedience is a big deal.
- Can one become addicted to worldly pleasures?
- Can an addicted person be free?

Disclaimer: I get one Proverb verse in email each day (except Sunday) so these are not selected by me. I try to stick to the list. I also don't blog daily. Just when I've time.
