Wisdom In Listening To Godly Parents

/ Tim A. / Leave a comment

My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.  Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.  Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
Say unto wisdom, “Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:”  That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,  And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding…

Proverbs 7:1-7

When They All Ran

/ Tim A. / Leave a comment

“And they laid their hands on Him, and took Him. And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. And Jesus answered and said unto them,
‘Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take Me? I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took Me not: but the Scriptures must be fulfilled.’
And they all forsook Him, and fled. And there followed Him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him: and he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.”  Mark 14:46-52

“…For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, and beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: and, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart….”  Proverbs 7:6-10  (KJB)
