Proverb 16

Verse 1 of this chapter with a very clear picture that the battle we face raged the same in Sslomon's day as it does today. The fight is still between our flesh and our spirit. The proverb says that it is the heart (read flesh) that makes plans. Often they are plans that seek to satisfy some worldly appetite. This is true even in the life of those in the faith. But for a Christian the final answer comes from a heart set of God's ways and his hope. When we follow God's plan then we will be strengthened and God will be honored.
It took me about 4 minutes to read this collection of wise statements.
