Don’t Be Lazy

9 

A lazy person is as bad as
     someone who destroys things.

10 

The name of the Lord is a strong fortress;
     the godly run to him and are safe.

Verse 9

If you are lazy, then this may cause trouble for other people. To be lazy is almost the same thing as to be dangerous.

Verse 10

Think of a fortress as a castle. A castle was a strong building, which would be safe, even during a war.

A good man trusts in God. He can relax, because God will keep him safe.

Verse 10 also shows that the writer of Proverbs believes the name of God, Yahweh, offers protection. However, this protection doesn't come just from knowing God's name. It's not magic. The protection comes when you call out to Him in trust and belief.

Let me ask you: Do you know God well enough to cry out to Him when you need a "Safe Place"?
