Proverbs!!!

[Mystery5]

My latest devotional kick is reading Proverbs. I'm going to start writing down the ones I like on a list for quick reference. Maybe I'll even memorize some. They are chock full of good advise for daily living. Here are a few that were so great! Such practical advise!

Proverbs 25:17
Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor's house, lest he become weary of you and hate you.

Proverbs 25:24
It is better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a contentious woman.

Proverbs 16:25
There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.

Proverbs 17:9
He who forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter alienates a friend.

Proverbs 22:24
Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a man who is perverse in speech, and is a fool.

Proverbs 15:1
A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

 

[Anthony]

PR 27:17
As iron sharpens iron,
so one man sharpens another.

 

[Paul S]

Proverbs 16:25
There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.

I like that one. It shows why we must always listen to the Church and not ourselves.

 

[Mystery5]

Proverbs 11:12
He who belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent.

Proverbs 12:16
The vexation of a fool is known at once, but the prudent man ignores an insult.

Proverbs 16:18
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

Like a gold ring in a pig's snout, Is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
