reminds me that our actions lead to consequences.
People sometimes blame God for the bad things that happen, and I guess sometimes rightly so since God is the only one who can control those situations (natural disasters, deaths, etc). But chapt 5 of proverbs reminds me that God is the one who gives guidance, God's word, the bible, gives instructions. If we do not follow what our creator says, who should be answerable when bad things happen? I am not saying that bad things won't happen when we follow everything God says. Who can control the thoughts and actions of someone who murders another? Who can control what people eat and put into their bodies that gives rise to illnesses? Well, God can, if He wants to. But this wouldn't be a real world if God controls everything others do.
The perfect world only exists in heaven, where there's no pain, no hurt, no negatives. Keep our eyes fixed on that.
