Proverbs 23:6-8

Proverbs 23:6 Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats:
7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
8 The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, and lose thy sweet words.
 
Well theses verse let us know that we need to be careful when ask to join someone for fellowship. Whether it be for food or a good time we need to be aware that they could have a motive for entertaining us. This person is one who hoards what he gets and could care less about helping anyone much less the poor.He is full of jealousy and spite and cannot bear to see anyone happy. Last this person will offer you a fine meal but it really is not very good because it was done for wrong motives and you cannot wait to get away and forget about this experience. When you get this feeling at someone’s table, it is hard to find nice things to say.
