so true...

In reading Proverbs 27, this verse stood out for me:

 

[Extraneous]

Proverbs 17:7 The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet

8 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.

18 Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.


Phillipians 4:11 Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: 12 I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

In reading Proverbs 27, this verse stood out for me:

This is an admonition to not shame your father (or your mother), but to HONOR each of them.

This is repeated throughout God's Word.

Amen.

This verse stood out for me in Proverbs 27:

 

[musicalpilgrim]

soooo true

Proverbs 27:

This verse stood out for me. It's deeeep, mon. It means to not bring shame to your father, for all that one does reflects on their father (and mother) whether we realize it or not. And as i think on this, to take it a bit further, we are to "bless" our father and mother, for in doing so, WE are blessed by God Himself. It's kinda' "circular", isn't it?

What a precious thing to learn.

 

[musicalpilgrim]

Yes...my son was wise and a wonderful blessing to me and his dad...

'The heart reflects the real person'. A good heart speaks through our actions!

This is so true,

Proverbs 27:

[brinny]

Proverbs 27:

"My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me." ~Proverbs 27:11

This stresses (as it does many times throughout the book of Proverbs) to honor and not to ever shame one's parents.

Bumping for today.

 

[musicalpilgrim]

1 Don’t brag about tomorrow,
since you don’t know what the day will bring.

2 Let someone else praise you, not your own mouth—
a stranger, not your own lips.

 

[brinny]

Proverbs 27:

amen. Wise counsel from a wise friend is a treasure.

 

[W2L]

A local ministry comes to mind
10 Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.

Yes, this is very wise, and it can prevent much embarrassment from assuming too much
