Christian Meditation Moments

So listen, my son, and be wise. Always be careful to follow the right path. Don’t make friends with people who drink too much wine and eat too much food. Those who eat and drink too much become poor. They sleep too much and end up wearing rags.

Never envy evil people, but always respect the Lord. This will give you something to hope for that will not disappoint you.

My son, it makes me happy when you make a wise decision. It makes me feel good inside when you say the right things.

Always correct children when they need it. If you spank them, it will not kill them. 14 In fact, you might save their lives.

Listen to your teacher and learn all you can.

10 Never move an old property line and don’t take land that belongs to orphans. 11 The Lord will be against you. He is powerful and protects orphans.

Don’t try to teach fools. They will make fun of your wise words.

Wise Saying #8 of 30

Proverbs 23:6 Don’t eat with selfish people. Control any desire you have for their finest foods. 7 They might tell you to eat and drink all you want, but they don’t really mean it. They are the kind of people who are only thinking about the cost. 8 And if you eat their food, you will get sick and be embarrassed.

Matthew 6:19“Don’t save treasures for yourselves here on earth. Moths and rust will destroy them. And thieves can break into your house and steal them. 20Instead, save your treasures in heaven, where they cannot be destroyed by moths or rust and where thieves cannot break in and steal them. 21Your heart will be where your treasure is.

When you sit and eat with an important person, remember who you are with. Never eat too much, even if you are very hungry. Don’t eat too much of his fine food. It might be a trick.
