Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching. Proverbs 1:8
THE BIBLE DOES NOT DESCRIBE how life ought to be. It matches how life is. The wisdom of Proverbs is reality-based counseling as we live in this fantasy-world of human invention. We see the blunt realism of the Bible in Proverbs 1:8-19.
Why are we in the book of Proverbs at all? Because so much of life is a series of nuanced judgment calls.
Join me in reading Proverbs 1 and be encouraged!
