It also reveals the path of those who reject her. Let’s learn from those in Scripture who show the outcome of their choice. Her call may be ignored but it can never be mistaken.
Proverbs 1.10-19 – The world offers a lot of enticing opportunities and there are those who would seek to lure us into participating in activities that scripture clearly outlines as being wrong, sinful, wicked.

Prov 1.1-7 – The book of Proverbs provides practical wisdom for daily living. Yet it is more than just guidelines to avoid problems in life.
