The Pilgrim Path---Proverbs 29: 25 – 27 (1—7—23)

The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe.

Many seek the face of a ruler, but it is from the LORD that a man get justice.

An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous, but one whose way is straight is an abomination to the wicked.

“…FROM THE LORD”

From Jack Miller: …I ask the Holy Spirit to search out my innermost heart motives. Guess what I often discover? That my motives are usually mixed. Especially I am likely to discover I am not doing things for God’s glory and out of delight and fellowship with Him, but out of half-concealed self-interest and self-glorying.

From John Duncan: The summons to let your nature, whatever it may be, get free play, with all its corrupted instincts, is a summons to pandemonium.
