Proverbs 18

It took me a couple minutes to read this collection of wisdom. This list consists of a number of observations about our speech. But the proverb of verse 18 is different. It speaks, indirectly, of our surrender to God's grace. How many conflicts have been settle by God through lots? How willing are we to surrender to God's will in an arguement when that will is displayed through a "game of chance"? Do we really trust God enough to let him use the foolishness of a die or coin to reveal the plans of the almighty? Solomon's would have encouraged us to follow such a path.
