Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
26 He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him.
We have seen this first verse before in chapter 14 but it bears revisiting. One of the worst mistakes anyone can make is to think that they know best by their own will what to do. When we let the flesh take over in leading us we will wind up in sin and destruction. Next we see the person who really thinks only of himself when it comes to laboring for what is needed. Even if it is a lazy person they will work most of time for what they need. God does not want us to be selfish but wants us to be able to not only help ourselves but be able to help others to. Let us strive to let God take control of our lives and help us make the decisions we make and help the people He puts in our path.
