tooooo many proverbs of solomon to read!
One could breakdown and analyze all these quips from Solomon in chapters 11-29...so I am through 14...let me breakdown two in 12/13 for now...
verse 15 is repeated in 15:22 and 19:20, basically...I like the way 15:22 is put...because I can find myself in such a quandry over conflicting advice...In so many instances...I seek more and more people the more different the advice is to see if I can at least get SOME kind of similarity. Ultimately, though...the final decision on what advice to take or not is my own...and sometimes, it is just too difficult to follow through on the toughest decisions one makes...so just prayer will have to suffice until courage is born.
verse 12 of Chapter 13 says "Hope Deferred makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true, there is life and joy." Now THAT really speaks to me currently!
