“Spiders in Palaces” By Doug Fincher

March 14, 2016 - “The spider is in the king’s palace…” Pro. 30:28

Most of us don’t like spiders. Whether it’s a whip, wolf, or water spider… they’re all loathsome. 
When Solomon found one in his palace, he wrote: “The spider takes hold with her hands and is in the king’s palace”.  Spiders sometimes climb into elevated places. Even the glorious church can become a place of slander and backbiting ---if a spider gets in! 

Our homes are our castles where kindness and love should reside.  But jealousy can creep in, then a little lie… later a big one.  Soon our castle becomes a place of dissention and dissonance.  A spider’s in the palace. I don’t know what Solomon did with the spider….but I have a good idea.

And if we’re wise, we’ll do the same.
