)."A man who wanders from the way of understanding will be comfortable among the walking dead" (Proverbs 21:16).We find too many "muting" the truth and turning up the volume of the voice of the lies and falsehoods of this world. When we mute what is needed most, while under the trials and test of life, instead of finding help we turn up the noise of this world and stray further and further from the guidance and glory of recognizing His presence. Help us Lord..."When someone wanders from the WAY of understanding, they will naturally find comfort and a sense of safety with their new companions. They will celebrate the same kind of places, walking down the same kind of paths and making the same kind of priorities about life, with those who live, day in and day out, without the light of God and life giving wisdom and direction He gives to those that trust and seek Him " (Proverbs 21:16). Through the years I've picked up a tip that's helped me understand a principle when digging into the truth that God gives. What is it? I pay attention to what a passage doesn't say. This has been a rich tool to help me see what God is saying to us. For example: Notice the principle above. What Proverbs 21:16 doesn't say is this: it doesn't say that they wander FROM understanding, no, they wandered from [the WAY of] understanding.
