(Pro 6:17 KJV)  A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

When I see a list like the one beginning here I wonder if there is a purpose behind the order or if it is just “random”.  Two verses make “random” questionable.

(Pro 16:33 KJV)  The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the LORD.

(Col 1:17 KJV)  And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

So there is purpose even in the order of this list.  I won’t speculate on that today.  I just want to remind myself that God has reasons for everything He does.  We may not understand now.  We may never understand, but we can rest assured that He does.

So?  Go back to the old gospel song, “Trust and Obey.”  A good place to start and finish.
