Proverbs 20:1-30

Proverbs 20:1-30

Proverbs 20:3 "It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling."

"Every fool will be meddling." It sounds like some southern axiom muttered from the corner of a grandma's mouth, as she sits in her porch rocker! You can almost hear the southern drawl.

How true that when we unwisely get in the middle of a fight between two people, we often end up with the black eye and the busted lip. Not only should we not strive with others, but we need to stay out of other's troubles. There is a time to help...and a time to let them work it out on their own. We can be a peacemaker without getting directly involved, and sometimes that is the wisest way.
