Day 11, Proverbs Chapter 11

Be Honest
Mary Mayfield

 "Dishonesty". Proverbs is the 20th book in the old testament.  It has 31 chapters.  The book of Proverbs has answers about our everyday life.  As we read Chapter 11,  we see dishonesty is not a great thing.  We see dishonesty manifested in Genesis 27:6-29, Proverbs 1:10-19 and James 5:4.  As we continue to read we see pride is followed by shame.  Yet, the humble is wise.  The unfaithful is caught by their own lust.  I read "Gifted Hands- The Ben Carson Story",  He says,  'When you do anything dishonest,  you must do something else dishonest to cover up and your life becomes hopelessly complex.
