I don't want to be a snare to anyone's soul.
Reading:

Proverbs 22:21-29

Verse twenty-four warns against developing friendships with those who have anger issues boiling within (and from) them. Here’s the reason given for not making such friendships:

“Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul” (Proverbs 22:25).

Should people avoid friendship with me, lest they learn my ways?

Hmmm. I wonder what negative things I allow in my character. Bitterness? Suspiciousness? Anger? Self-pity? Moroseness? Defensiveness? Pride?

Yuck!

And I wonder what my character positives are.

Well, whatever the case, that verse has been a wake-up call to me this morning.

I want to be safe to be around!

I want to be safe to learn from!

When someone learns my ways, I don’t want it to be a snare to his soul.
