Proverbs 10

Today we start the individual Proverbs of Solomon.  They are shorter sayings full of wisdom and truth.  Remember what we said last month, quality is more important than quantity.  It’s better to meditate on an individual Proverb and put it into practice than read the whole chapter and forget what you read.  Take your time and have a conversation today about one of the verses.  Let’s start the conversation now.  What is your favorite verse or verses from Chapter 10?  Why is it significant for you right now?  How do you plan on “putting it into practice” in your life today?

One of my favorites in this chapter is verse 5. God wants us to work when there's work to be done. I think of the verse like this: It's always good to seek out work that needs to be done, but if it's right in front of your face do it! Verse 19 is another favorite. It's significant to me right now because the more I talk the greater the chance of my saying something wrong. I want to be a blessing to those around me. I'm going to put it into practice by remembering to pray before I speak.
