8 PAX arrived in the cold rain at Chickfiet for some Chicken n Wizdim.

Studying Proverbs 26 and winding down the book with 5 chapters left, the wise authors are not holding back and telling it like it is. 26 breaks down into 4 sections for us that covers the following:

Fools, Sluggards (lazy), Those careless with words, and liars/deceitful people.

The Challenge is What not to do and don’t fall into these categories even in the slightest way in order to avoid obvious trouble.

Key verses:

⁴ Answer not a fool according to his folly,
lest you be like him yourself. Engaging with a foolish person makes you a fool
⁵ Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he be wise in his own eyes. Warn or correct the fool so they know the right way, but then move on

⁸ Like one who binds the stone in the sling
is one who gives honor to a fool. Like getting hit was a misfire, Be careful of the crowd you run with and people you “honor” as it can bite you and hit you in the face one day.

¹³ The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road!
There is a lion in the streets!” Any excuse not do to what we need to do…..How driven are you at work, but not in your marriage and with your kids….don’t be lazy where it matters!

²² The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels;
they go down into the inner parts of the body. Gossip and words of destruction are like taking little poison pills….they go in deep and kill from within.

²⁷ Whoever digs a pit will fall into it,
and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling. Liars and deceitful people not only end up trapped, but can get killed by their own web of deceit

Proverbs 27 Next Friday. Come and join us!

God Bless!
