Proverbs 21 KJV

The ways of the wicked tend to be selfish. A man can blind himself with all the pleasure's of the world but still find himself yearning for more, and yet end his days of life in a pit. The world has a way of distracting you, but applied wisdom can help you to build a callousness to the distractions of this world that can allow you to find deeper truth. Seek wisdom not pleasure, and the Lord will preserve you faithfully.
"Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak." (Mark 14:38)
