proverbs 3

31 Do not envy a violent man
or choose any of his ways,


do not exalt that person in your class you think is cool cause hes a jerk
dont desire to be like him.

(thats what i got from it at least)

proverbs 2

10 When wisdom enters your heart,
And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,
11 Discretion will preserve you;
Understanding will keep you,
12 To deliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks perverse things,
13 From those who leave the paths of uprightness
To walk in the ways of darkness;
14 Who rejoice in doing evil,
And delight in the perversity of the wicked;
15 Whose ways are crooked,
And who are devious in their paths;

to be honest i get a little tired of the wisdom passages in proverbs because theyre visited so many times in school and talked about alot. still its a good thing to understand, no matter how thouroughly we think we know it.

proverbs 1:4-5

recently ive been very lacking in my devos. its gotten to the point where i lose my bible and cant find it cause i dont remember where i used it last. anyway, i figure that instead of jack handy quotes with every post, ill start some God quotes. it'll help me to remember to read the bible everytime i get on blogger to kill time. im just gonna post a verse that i like or just something that stands out to me. we do it in bible class. dont feel like you have to comment about them and have to say "yeah thats a really good verse" to comment on my blog. chances are, the verses wont have the same meaning to you as they do me, so if its some random verse that you dont see importance in, dont worry. this is for me, not really my audience.


this is the purpose of proverbs-
1:4. for giving prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young
1:5. let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance
