What comes out of a person is what defiles him. For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.

Proverbs 27:14
Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice,
rising early in the morning, will be counted as cursing.

Proverbs 1:22
How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple?

Ray Ortlund
Proverbs is Wisdom for Idiots

Ray Ortlund
Wisdom is the gospel of Christ reshaping us for royalty.

Psalm 1:1
Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

Chan Kilgore
The great blunder we all can make is leaving God out, and making ourselves the judges of everything. But it can be extremely painful to learn the fear of the Lord. It is death to our narcissistic egos and self-assured opinions.

Ray Ortlund
[When] you look at the cross. You see a wise man hanging there, dying in the place of fools like you, because he loves you. You may despise him, but he does not despise you. You may be above him, but he humbled himself for you. Look there at him. Look away from yourself. Look at him, and keep looking until your pride melts. You will not only worship, you will begin to grow wise.

Proverbs 3:5–8
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
Be not wise in your own eyes;
fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.
It will be healing to your flesh
and refreshment to your bones.
