Proverbs 15:18-21

Proverbs 15:18 A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19 The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain.
20 A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21 Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly.
 
In theses verses we see some more comparisons.
First we have a hothead that is always stirring up trouble. they are ready to start a battle over anything. Then we have the lazy man who could care less of anything ever got done. Next is one who does not want to here anything their mother has to say even though she would gladly help him in any way. Finally we those who just do not care for the wisdom of God and they will never enjoy the blessings of God.
On the other side we have the peacemakers who because of the wisdom God they are slow to anger. Next we have the industrious person who is always doing all they can to get things accomplished. Then a man tha twill eagerly take instructions from his father because he wants his father to be proud of him. Finally as we have seen already a man of understanding is always working to do the right and moral thing. Let us all try to be like the last four examples we see here This is what God expects of us and it is our reasonable service to do this.
