#ScriptureReflection - Proverbs 16:1-9 (9.30.21)

1  We can make our own plans,
    but the Lord gives the right answer.

2  People may be pure in their own eyes,
    but the Lord examines their motives.

3  Commit your actions to the Lord,
    and your plans will succeed.

4  The Lord has made everything for his own purposes,
    even the wicked for a day of disaster.

5  The Lord detests the proud;
    they will surely be punished.

6  Unfailing love and faithfulness make atonement for sin.
    By fearing the Lord, people avoid evil.

7  When people’s lives please the Lord,
    even their enemies are at peace with them.

8  Better to have little, with godliness,
    than to be rich and dishonest.

9  We can make our plans,
    but the Lord determines our steps.
