15 A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom,
but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.
17 Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;
they will bring you the delights you desire.
I like these 2 today. Its a good reminder that our kids need us to be their parents first, and their friends second: Not the other way around.
I'm getting burned out on reading thru these Proverbs, I'm glad the end is near. Its not that it isn't good stuff, but I'm needing a little more story/context.
you dig?
totally agree with your comments, kids need the boundaries we give them.
ReplyDelete23 Pride lands you flat on your face;
humility prepares you for honors.
Also like this one, I used the Message version. I sometimes feel pride causing my lips to move, when I do its time to shut up.
I do like Proverbs but agree I'm ready for something else. You pick, I'll follow.
