(A simple series highlighting verses from each chapter of the book of Proverbs) 

​Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands. Proverbs 14:1 HCSB

This house is built using truths from this book such as: 

• Living in the fear of the Lord
  
• Following the path of righteousness 
• Choosing words that instill trust and respect 
• Giving to the poor
• Correcting and rebuking the children 

This house is destroyed ignoring and rejecting truths from this book by:

• Living for personal gain 
  
• Following the “whatever feels good” path
• Stirring up strife and contention with words of gossip and contempt
• Hoarding 
• Allowing the children to do as they please
