Proverbs 7

The Proverbs verse from Chapter 7 that I liked the most was 7:2  Keep my commandments and live; Guard my teaching as the apple of your eye.

I think this means that we must follow God's commandments because it will get us far in life. If we live as God wants us to, he will reward us. God's laws are very helpful in becoming a better person, and we must always remember that. This week, I am going to cut back on saying the Lord's name in vain and also keep in mind the rest of the commandments. I will remember how God wants me to act and act that way.

Proverbs 6

This week I chose verse 6:5  Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, Like a bird from the snare of the fowler.

I think this verse is trying to tell us to free ourselves from people who control us and hurt us. We need to not be taken advantage of and be free. This week, I am going to try to get away from people that just use me and make me do things I don't want to do. I will not be a victim of someone else's pleasure.
