Proverbs 10

It took me about 4 minutes to read all of these choice morsels that Solomon observed and recorded. A number of these truths focus on the value of words. Verse 11 contrasts the words of a good person and a wicked person. The words of both are a picture of depth. One is a deep well, the source of freshest water in Solomon's days. The other is a deep cave, and at the bottom there is no life giving treasure but a spring of abusive words that flow out on their listeners. Solomon had seen both. So have we.  We need this reminder ao that we will allow God to continually change us from caves of abuse into wells of life.
