I was reading my son’s bible in my daily walk through proverbs today, and I loved how his version just says it like it is.  Proverbs 6:12-14 says, “A good-for-nothing scoundrel is a person who has a dishonest mouth.  He winks his eye, makes a signal with his foot, and points with his fingers.  He devises evil all the time with a twisted mind.  He spreads conflict.”

Now reading this gives me a clear picture of the kind of person I want to stay far away from, and it also reminds me of the kind of person I never want to become.  I wouldn’t want to reap the rewards of this low down dirty scoundrel:

Verse 15 says this is what will happen to that person:“…disaster will come on him suddenly.  In a moment he will be crushed beyond recovery.”‘

It all starts with a dishonest mouth.  Just tell the truth ya’ll.

Be wise.
