He who is satiated [with sensual pleasures] loathes and treads - TopicsExpress



          

He who is satiated [with sensual pleasures] loathes and treads underfoot a honeycomb, but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet. Like a bird that wanders from her nest, so is a man who strays from his home. Oil and perfume rejoice the heart; so does the sweetness of a friends counsel that comes from the heart. Your own friend and your fathers friend, forsake them not; neither go to your brothers house in the day of your calamity. Better is a neighbor who is near [in spirit] than a brother who is far off [in heart]. My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him who reproaches me [as having failed in my parental duty]. [Prov. 10:1; 23:15, 24.] A prudent man sees the evil and hides himself, but the simple pass on and are punished [with suffering]. (Proverbs 27:7-12 AMP)
