Proverbs 4:20-27
My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart, for they are life to those who find them and health to a man's whole body. Above all else, guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life. Put away perversity from your mouth; keep corrupt talk far from your lips. Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you. Make level paths for your feet and take only ways that are firm. Do not swerve to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.
What a great passage.
Pay attention, listen closely, keep your heart, put perverse talk( that includes negative faithless words), look straight ahead, fix your gaze, take a firm path, keep from evil.
Seems pretty obvious. If we want an abundant, healthy life in body soul and spirit, we need to simply LISTEN CLOSELY to the word of God, apply his instruction and TRUST He knows what He is doing regardless of the fears we feel or sense. Follow Him.
