Proverbs 27:26 (KJV) The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.
When you hear sheep and goats mentioned together you think of judgment and Jesus separating them, or at least I do. Our conception is that sheep, or here lambs, are the righteous and goats are the bad guys. Notice that does not apply here.
Be careful in your choice of words. Even more important be careful of your interpretation of words. They do not always mean the same. Another example might be milk. At one place you have the joy of a land of milk and honey. At another you are urged to grow beyond the milk of the word as baby food.
So? Never get complacent. Be aware of the danger of drifting and not thinking. God speaks but we need to listen.
Tangents and Vectors
An Idea Borrowed
Years ago on a radio program someone shared that they read a chapter in Proverbs every day. Since there are 31 chapters and the longest month has 31 days it allows you to read through Proverbs on a regular basis. I use it as the launch pad for my personal worship time and branch out from there. On this blog I will try to share some of the insights I have in the Word. I will try to organize them in the archive by reference.
