Proverbs 25

We must always seek truth in every situation; no lie or deception from the wicked should corrupt our action or judgement. Do not attempt to seize power for yourself; be humble and work to do God's will and work for and though Him. His knowledge and power far surpass your own; be humbled by Him. Do not lie or break the trust of another with gossip; it will only bring shame upon you. Be trustworthy, and let your words be fruitful and full of God's wisdom. Share your blessings with others; be not selfish or greedy with what God has gifted you with. Place your trust in those who are wise and worthy; lean not on the wicked. Although we often find it difficult to to do so, we must confront our enemies with a love that reflects that of our Lord. Aid him in his struggles, and God will take notice. Avoid quarrels with your spouse; it does sufficient damage. Even a drop of the ways of the wicked will contaminate your being; do not even take a taste of their lifestyle. Do not boast in yourself so as to be seen as honorable; you won't be. Humble yourself, always. Be disciplined; be not reckless or without care.
