There are so many nuggets of truth in this chapter, it's worth reading the whole thing. Here are three(3) verses that I have been pondering over of since I was a teenager and have found them to be trustworthy and true.
- PROV 16:3 "Commit your ways to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed." NIV - I first learned this verse in the King James Version which upon reflection speaks more to me than the NIV. PROV 16:3 "Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established" KJV - Wow, that is powerful! I have seen God work in my life this way.
- PROV16:9 "A man's heart deviseth (plans) his way: but the LORD directeth his steps" KJV - Aren't you glad that the circumstances in your life can be directed if you trust in Him, that it isn't just fate?
- PROV 16:20 "Whoever gives heed to instruction (handle a matter wisely - kjv) prospers, and blessed is he who trust in the LORD." NIV
A bonus verse for my son Chris who recently became engaged! Proverbs 18:22
"He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD."
Congratulations Chris & Danielle!
