The second verse in this chapter is a proverb that speaks mountains with regard to ethics. The words challenge me to compare all of my plans to the words of the Bible. They also open the door of accountability. I need to provide my words and intentions to other believers who I trust. They will provide an objective evauation of my plans. Even believer who may disagree with me, they are valuable treasures for any goal I am pursuing. I must be honest and realize that my sin nature doesn't like God working in my life. It will take hold of any situation it finds and turn it into a temptation to sin. Knowing that up front helps me to work to secure guides who will not be "yes men" but will stand for what is right.
It took me about 4 minutes to read this chapter.
