Proverbs - Receiving and Knowing

                                                    Proverbs 10:8-9

The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.

He that walketh uprightly walketh surely:

but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.

                        We must be open to receive God’s commandments - to have them come in and become part of the fabric of our identity.  If we are quick to contend with the Lord on a matter we will fall in order that God is proven right.  Our own understanding is not the best support to be leaning upon.

                        When we don’t have anything hidden we can walk in a sure manner.  If we have hidden sin, hidden agendas or unconfessed attitudes, our steps will give us away.  Let us walk in the light as He is in the light and then have good fellowship with one another.  As you and I make choices uprightly, our paths will be straight and our steps sure.
