Proverbs 19

21 Many are the plans in a person’s heart,
    but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.

I think we kind of talked about this but there is the life plan I try to direct and control but it's God's plan that I need to follow.  I think this points out that God is in control regardless of what I think.

So rather than trying to direct my own path, seek his direction--
8 The one who gets wisdom loves life;
    the one who cherishes understanding will soon prosper.

27 Stop listening to instruction, my son,
    and you will stray from the words of knowledge.

  1. There's a couple that I really like today. No rhyme or reason to string them together.

    11 A person’s wisdom yields patience;
    it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.

    14 Houses and wealth are inherited from parents,
    but a prudent wife is from the Lord.

    25 Flog a mocker, and the simple will learn prudence;
    rebuke the discerning, and they will gain knowledge.

    I like that last one...just because I like how "flog-a-mocker" sounds...hahaha
