0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
0:07.0 | Today we tackle more of Solomon's Proverbs and Chapter 19 starts out with a lot of |
0:17.2 | wisdom on relationships including our relationship with God. |
0:21.5 | I'll open with a confession. |
0:23.4 | Beside 19-2 in my Bible, I've written TLC, exclamation mark in all caps in the margin. |
0:29.8 | Those are my initials and my nickname, so it's just my way of trying to call my attention to the fact that I struggle with this, particularly the second half of the verse. |

1:21.0 | It breaks my heart to see this kind of thing in the church, where we have a |
1:25.3 | relationship with God that is driven only by emotion and that has no actual knowledge of who |
1:29.6 | God is. That's why I'm so glad we're in the word here. Every day that you open up your Bible |
1:35.6 | and put your eyes on who God says he is, you're displaying the kind of wisdom this |
1:39.9 | verse calls us to. |
