Kimmy’s Song
21
The tongue can bring death or life;
those who love to talk will reap the consequences.
22
The man who finds a wife finds a treasure,
and he receives favor from the Lord.
Verse 21
When a judge makes his judgement, he can punish a man with death. When a thief makes an evil plan, his words can plot a man’s death.
Our words also bring results. We can tell people how to become Christians. We can advise people wisely. We can help people with our words. Words are powerful.
This proverb teaches us that those who speak wicked things bring death upon themselves, while those who speak of God’s goodness bring life. The choice is up to each individual. Choose wisely.
Verse 22
See Proverbs 31:10-21. When a man marries a woman, this is good. See Genesis 2:20-24. God has been good to them, so they love each other. They should look after each other. They should encourage and help each other. They must try to be a good husband and a good wife. God has been kind to them, so they should try to be kind to each other.
Many people today avoid commitment and marriage, opting to simply live together. They miss out on the unique favor and blessings that God bestows on married couples.
Some people feel hopeless about finding a committed spouse. My advice is not to marry just for the sake of being married, as this often leads to heartbreak and divorce. The right person comes along eventually, quit trying to make it happen.
Think about this: Do you know someone who has gone through a messy divorce? Show them that they are valuable to God. He wants to heal their wounds.
