Proverbs 3:3-4
Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will win favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will win favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.
Continuing on from last week, Proverbs 3 is
giving us instructions on how we should live in order to have a good life as
God intended for us. Here we are told to
love and be faithful. To bind them
around our neck and write them on the tablet of our heart. In other words, be clothed in love and
faithfulness. If we are clothed in them,
others will surly see that in us.
Being liked by others is often something we want
in life. Here we are told that by
clothing ourselves in love and faithfulness, we will win favor and a good name
in the sight of both God and man. This
is something that I know I find to be a desire of my heart.
So how do we cloth ourselves or bind them around
our neck and write them on the tablet of our heart? What this really means is that you live it in
all things. It sounds so simple yet it
can really be a challenge.
How can you show others that you are clothed in
love and faithfulness?
