Proverbs 6

It only took a couple of minutes to read the proverbs in this chapter. Solomon covers a number of topics, but I want to focus on verses 6-11. Here Solomon offers guidance in regard to planning ahead in life. We can relax and "enjoy" life, or we can diligently prepare. But he doesn't state the benefits of a prepared life. But then again, he doesn't have to. He explains what happens in the life focused on pleasure. Will a dilegent life always be pleasant? No, but because of hard work poverty will not be our constant companion.
