全新四年樂活讀經
箴言的作者教導我們，要保守我們的心，勝過保守一切，因為一生的果效是由心而發。心是我們行動的指引與根基。我們行為的果效也是由心來決定。我們讓什麼進入心中，並充滿內心，就決定我們如何抉擇。
我們要分辨清楚，是愛情還是情慾？是由神來的異象還是野心？是為了榮耀神或是為了滿足自己？省察我們的心，我們的動機是否有在正道上？願神保守我們。
題目：在本章經文中，除了保守我們的心之外，還要保守什麼呢？

4:16 這等人若不行惡，不得睡覺；不使人跌倒，睡臥不安；
For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.
4:17 因為他們以奸惡吃餅，以強暴喝酒。
For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.
4:18 但義人的路好像黎明的光，越照越明，直到日午。
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
