I know that my words and thoughts are no better than the word of scripture. Those are just some key point that I took for myself. By reading the following points I encourage you to go to the Bible and read the actual passages that I am talking about. In the Bible you can find real wise pieces of advice for your life. It is not just a Christian perspective. It is not just theory. It is more than that. It’s a living river of knowledge for your every day life.
1 Better to be poor and honest than a rich person no one can trust.
2 Ignorant zeal is worthless;
haste makes waste.3 People ruin their lives by their own stupidity,
so why does God always get blamed?4 Wealth attracts friends as honey draws flies,
but poor people are avoided like a plague.5 Perjury won’t go unpunished.
Would you let a liar go free?6 Lots of people flock around a generous person;
everyone’s a friend to the philanthropist.7 When you’re down on your luck, even your family avoids you—
yes, even your best friends wish you’d get lost.
If they see you coming, they look the other way—
out of sight, out of mind.8 Grow a wise heart—you’ll do yourself a favor;
keep a clear head—you’ll find a good life.9 The person who tells lies gets caught;
the person who spreads rumors is ruined.10 Blockheads shouldn’t live on easy street
any more than workers should give orders to their boss.11 Smart people know how to hold their tongue;
their grandeur is to forgive and forget.12 Mean-tempered leaders are like mad dogs;
the good-natured are like fresh morning dew.13 A parent is worn to a frazzle by a stupid child;
a nagging spouse is a leaky faucet.14 House and land are handed down from parents,
but a congenial spouse comes straight from God.Proverbs 19:1-14
My pieces of advice for your life are inspired from Proverbs 16 and 17. I hope they are wise enough for you. We all try to understand the Christian perspective and to live it:
The wise pieces of advice for your life for today, based on the Christian perspective, are from Proverbs 13:13-25:
13 Ignore the Word and suffer;
honor God’s commands and grow rich.14 The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life,
so, no more drinking from death-tainted wells!15 Sound thinking makes for gracious living,
but liars walk a rough road.16 A commonsense person lives good sense;
fools litter the country with silliness.17 Irresponsible talk makes a real mess of things,
but a reliable reporter is a healing presence.18 Refuse discipline and end up homeless;
embrace correction and live an honored life.19 Souls who follow their hearts thrive;
fools bent on evil despise matters of soul.20 Become wise by walking with the wise;
hang out with fools and watch your life fall to pieces.21 Disaster entraps sinners,
but God-loyal people get a good life.22 A good life gets passed on to the grandchildren;
ill-gotten wealth ends up with good people.23 Banks foreclose on the farms of the poor,
or else the poor lose their shirts to crooked lawyers.24 A refusal to correct is a refusal to love;
love your children by disciplining them.25 An appetite for good brings much satisfaction,
but the belly of the wicked always wants more.Proverbs 13:13-25
