Proverbs 5
Well, today's reading deals with some rather intimate stuff.
Suffice to say that as each year goes by I am more convinced that God's rules are self-enforcing. They are so consonant with human nature, and so finely atuned to social equlibria that they do not require divine intervention for enforcement.
There are few difficulties in my life that can't be traced to my own attempts to cut a corner or to circumvent God's plan for general equilibrium.
"The evil deeds of a wicked man ensnare him; the cords of his sin hold him fast.
He will die for lack of discipline, led astray by his own great folly." (v. 22-23).
