A Fountain Of Life

"The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death."  Proverbs 13:14.  Each person has a philosophy of how to live life.  We all have a law by which we live our days upon the earth.  Some are wise, and some are foolish.  Can you imagine a fountain that gives life?  Such is the way of God.  For one to live he must depart from death.  God offers life, and the devil offers death.  Notice the snares of death.  A snare is a trap.  The devil tries to trap us.  His word is not truthful.  Those who hear him are not wise.  His way is the way of death.  It is not easy to escape from a snare.  We must use caution that we do not fall into the way of the devil.  Wisdom hears God, and does as the Lord instructs.  To hear the instruction of God is to have life.  God wants us to live rather than die.  The fountain of life is a prohibitive fountain.  The fountain of life calls for a certain lifestyle.  The wise use this law to govern themselves.  The fountain of life is a constant source of peace and comfort.  Wise men drink so that they might live.
