A Brief Note on Pleasure

"The LORD will not allow the righteous soul to famish, but He casts away the desire of the wicked."
Proverbs 10:3

Wisdom is above man's thinking. A man may think that if he descends into the depths of his sin, and depends on his lusts, he can make his pleasure secure. Any pleasures we receive, including those that involve temptation, come within the purview of God's providence, and may be cast away at His disposal. Therefore, it is better to wait on the pleasure God provides, for "He adds no sorrow to it".
