Salutary Counsel
The Congregational Pulpit
Proverbs 4:26
Ponder the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established.


I. PONDER THAT PORTION OF OUR PATH WHICH WE HAVE ALREADY TRODDEN.

1. Has it been the way of evil?

2. Have we visited Calvary?

3. Has it been a path of usefulness?

II. PONDER THE PORTION OF THE PATH WHICH WE ARE NOW TREADING.

1. Is it lawful ground?

2. Are we following the footprints of Jesus? These are found, and found only, in heavenly paths.

3. Is there a light shining upon the road? "The way of the wicked is as darkness," because it is their own evil, dismal, unhappy, and dangerous way; but the path of the justified is that of increasing holiness and joy.

III. PONDER THAT PORTION OF OUR PATH WHICH WE HAVE YET TO TREAD.

1. It is beset with snares and dangers.

2. It passes through the valley and shadow of death. There is now no other way to immortality.

3. It leads either to heaven or to hell.
