Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 14. I will then key in on verse 12 - There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. When I think of this verse I think of people who live their lives as though God does not exist. These people live their lives making their own decisions and in their own might. Conversely, if we look at Proverb 3: verses 5 and 6, the Bible tells us that we are to trust in the Lord, and lean not on our own strength. Friends, if we invite Jesus into our lives, and allow Him into our hearts, and make Him the Lord of our lives, our lives will tend to go a lot better. I will then read Genesis Chapter 12: verses 18-25. These verses tell us that God intended for man and woman to come together and form a union as man and wife. For anyone listening to this podcast today that are living together (and not married) I invite you to consider the possibility of getting married. I go over a conversation I had with a young man this past week that has been living with his girlfriend for the past four years and mentioned to me that they had separated on a number of occasions over these past four years because he felt there wasn't the "intention" of a permanent relationship. He told me that they are now considering getting married. I believe that the actual celebration of marriage with the guy's and girl's close friends and family help solidify and strengthen the relationship. I then go over the importance of taking vacations together as a couple (or as a family if you have children). My wife and I have now been to 49 states together and each vacation that we take together strengths our relationship and draws us closer together.
