The Dog And The Vomit | Proverbs 26

5 minutes Posted Dec 29, 2025 at 12:38 am.

(MSG) says: "As a dog eats its own vomit, so fools recycle their silliness." In active addiction, we were stuck in the "vomit loop." We knew the substance was making us sick. We knew the lifestyle was killing us. But we kept going back to it, hoping for a different result. We were recycling our own destruction.

The Dog & The Vomit – Why Do We Recycle Our Pain? (Proverbs 26) 🐕🤢

It is the grossest verse in the Bible, but let's be honest—it's also the most accurate. Proverbs

Today on Day 26, we are walking through Proverbs 26. We’re diagnosing the relapse loop, talking about drama addiction, and learning how to put out fires.

In this video, we cover:

✅ The Vomit Loop: Why we return to the thing that broke us and how to finally walk away (v. 11).

✅ The Mad Dog: Why getting involved in other people's drama is like "grabbing a mad dog by the ears" (v. 17).

✅ No Wood, No Fire: The simple formula for killing gossip in your friend group (v. 20). If you are tired of recycling the same old mistakes, it's time to break the cycle.
