Proverbs 15:12-22
This group of verses begin with a scorner. There are some people who are against everything that is good. Our work is being divided more and more this way.
Then we have the heart of a person of understanding seeking knowledge. It is a mistake for any one of us to say, “I am complete. I don’t need anything more.” This could reveal how short sided we are.
Then there is the phrase about a dinner of herbs where love is. Sometimes people who have just a little and are a happy family are better off than people loaded with money who are not satisfied with anything. A rich man was asked what would make him happy. The answer was just a little more.
I am going to end this with the safety there is in the multitude of counselors. This is the opposite of the know it all, the ” I need no help” sort of person. Of course, there are those with bad advice too. We must always weigh carefully the advice we give too.
