Proverbs of a 35 yr old man.


God did not promise happiness in this life. This life is more than just pleasing yourself all the time, and many times in sin. God would rather have you obey him through struggle and perseverance than have you enjoy sin in peace and safety. He would rather you work on overcoming past failures in your life and fight off the comfort of sin and death. Instead of earthly happiness always pleasing yourself, God would rather produce in you the peaceable fruit of the joy in the Lord. The joy of Jesus our Lord, the selfless Savior. Sin's fleeting pleasures brings only a candle of a flame. Quickly the wick is blown out by evils destruction. But those who practice Righteousness shine like the sun. The desires of God's pure heart last forever, forever for our eternal enjoyment. Suffer the reproach of Christ, for in this is found the treasures of heaven and true happiness. Study Heb. 11:24-26
