Proverbs 2

While I have missed many days blogging about the Proverb of the Day, it certaunly hasn't deterred me from my daily reading. I've already been learning so much in a short time. I'll give some recaps of the past several days and hopefully get on track here shortly. :) Proverbs 2 starts with some "if you" passages. If you (do this) you will (gain this). Receive the words. Treasure the commands. Turn ear to wisdom. Incline heart to understanding. Call to intelligence. To understanding raise your voice. See like silver and search as if searching for hidden treasures. By following those commands it will be found: to understand fear of the Lord and the knowledge of God. This particular chapter really inspires me to live an upright and just life. It is a way to eternal life. I'll be saved from evil, perverse speaking dark men and adultery. I'll walk with good people. I will dwell in the Land as it is where the honest remain (21).
