THE TRUST WORTHY PATH OF WISDOM
20 My son, keep your father's command,
And do not forsake the law of your mother.
21 Bind them continually upon your heart;
Tie them around your neck.
22 When you roam, they will lead you;
When you sleep, they will keep you;
And when you awake, they will speak with you.
23 For the commandment is a lamp,
And the law a light;
Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,….

This morning we are going to continue our study of Proverbs 6. For the last month or two we've been considering the nature and character of evil men. As they've been described, we've looked at vices God hates and the virtues He loves
.
The Preacher will next turn His attention to evil women and the dangers of pursuing their deviant desires. But before this he will remind us of the value and incomparable virtue of wisdom's ways. There is only one path that leads to life… all others lead to the eternal torment and regret.

These verses describe the heart and character I'd the wicked. We see that Wisdom is not surprised by human nature and our sinful tendencies. Wisdom doesn't leave us in our sin, but leads and directs us in the way we should go… what we need to do and not do if we would live a life that gives glory to God.
