Commentary on Proverbs 15:19

Theological / Devotional

Made plain. That is, raised up and leveled like a causeway. The inner attitude affects the whole environment. The lazy man sets his mind on avoiding anything in the nature of a difficulty, but the more he thinks of trouble, the more trouble he sees. As the righteous man presses steadily on the heavenly way, difficulties vanish before him because his faith moves the hand of God and he walks step by step along a leveled road, raised high above the world.
