Proverbs 20

"The purposes of a man's heart are deep waters,
but a man of understanding draws them out.

Many a man claims to have unfailing love,
but a faithful man who can find?

The righteous man leads a blameless life;
blessed are his children after him.

Who can say, "I have kept my heart pure;
I am clean and without sin?"

Even a child is know by his actions,
by whether his conduct is pure and right.

Gold there is, and rubies in abundance,
but lips that speak knowledge are a rare jewel.

If a man curses his father or mother,
his lamp will be snuffed out in pitch darkness.

The lamp of the Lord searches the spirit of a man;
it searches out his inmost being."


WISDOM from YOUTH
It is important to begin teaching our children and grandchildren at an early age the importance of these great proverbs. The the truths will be engraved on their hearts and minds and their decisions in life will naturally be pleasing to God, because they know right from wrong. Even a child is know by their actions.

Most of all, live your life applying these principles, be faithful, so that your life may be a witness to others who are searching for our God.
