Proverbs 28

It only took about 3 minutes to read this chapter.  Sometimes I wonder if I belong in the category of those who don't listen to God? Solomon noted his obvervation of such people in verse 9. Does God respond to my prayers the same way I respond to his word? If I understand grace at all Solomon's words are aimed at those who have no faith in God and then mouth words toward him when it is socially or politically expedient for their desires. Jesus' blood covers our short term failures, from which he will lead us back to his throne.  Yet there may be some prayer which are rejected in order for us to learn more about God's nature and how he works in our lives.
