Proverbs 15 continues in a line of short successive maxims that illustrate the vast difference between God’s wisdom and the way of folly, but the short distance between the two. Proverbs, the book, has been providentially preserved in order that we might know, not only how to distinguish the two, but how to diagnose when we are falling into either category. When push comes to shove in our lives spiritually, which direction will we head off into? Are we reactive or are we responsive? Are we quick to lose our temper or slow to anger? Consider these questions as we make our way through Proverbs 15.
