Day 104 Thunder and Vinegar | Proverbs 10:25-26
Thunder and Vinegar
25
When the storms of life come, the wicked are whirled away,
but the godly have a lasting foundation.
26
Lazy people irritate their employers,
like vinegar to the teeth or smoke in the eyes.
Verse 25
A storm will sweep away wicked people because they have no firm security. But God will keep safe the person who trusts in him.
See Matthew 7:24-27.
Verse 26
There is humour in this verse. If you send a lazy man with a message, your message may never arrive. Instead, send a wise man with the message. It will soon arrive.
Vinegar does set people’s teeth on edge and smoke stings
the eyes and makes it hard to see – both unpleasant experiences.
Equally unpleasant and frustrating is the experience of sending
someone to do a job when that person hates to do any work.
Contemplate: Do good guys come out on top more
than bad guys? Forgetting money, after a disaster, do good guys
have a more meaningful life than bad guys?
