I find it interesting that in my translation prostitutes are called wayward. Those who choose to lure others into sexual sin have truly gone from the Way! God is the one who has the correct path.
Solomon was instructing men to heed his instruction like they would protect their eyesight (apple of the eye). His father, David, mentioned God’s Word as being a lamp to his feet and a light unto his path. Focusing on God’s direction is the way everyone will not stumble and possibly die.
In closing, Chapter 7 made we think how relying on the Spirit’s instruction and strength, and focusing our attention on satisfying our spouses’ needs will keep us from being wayward. Those who are single have the ability to spend even more of their time in a ministry, and should not be hunting for someone to fill the gap that only Jesus can fill. He is life!
Thank you for the word today sister.Yes i must say that must keep our eyes on the Lord so we don’t loose our focus on His will for our lives.
Thanks again&have a blessed day stay safe
You are welcome! That is the key…keeping our eyes focused on Jesus in every area of our lives! God bless you and Angela….glad to hear about your work schedule!
That is so true,how are you&Allen doing anyway?
Alan still has his hours, thank you Jesus! We are enjoying our apartment in Tukwila. We do request prayers for his long hours and his health, and prayer for my health. Finally, that God would help us in learning how to communicate a little better.
