This is so funny. I was just watching foxnews and they were saying how Obama has a hard time taking criticism and then I opened your blog and looked at verse 1. Weird!!
I have just enjoyed these proverbs so much. I am ashamed to say that this is all new to me. I just sit here and get so interested in everything. It is true that the Lord really will open your eyes to it and it all seems to make more sense. I had no idea this was all in the bible....I love it!
1 For people who hate discipline and only get more stubborn, There'll come a day when life tumbles in and they break, but by then it'll be too late to help them.
I saw what Kristin wrote and I've noticed that Obama doesn't take criticism well. It's like he thinks he can't do no wrong.
15 Wise discipline imparts wisdom; spoiled adolescents embarrass their parents.
16 When degenerates take charge, crime runs wild, but the righteous will eventually observe their collapse.
How come this verse makes me think of Obama too? lol
17 Discipline your children; you'll be glad you did— they'll turn out delightful to live with.
18 If people can't see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves; But when they attend to what he reveals, they are most blessed.
