Pray that you may speak with dignity

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. (Proverbs 25v11)

How precious is peace?

"Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife".  Proverbs 17v1

 

If you are a child of God, expect to be disciplined!

"My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord;  neither be weary of his correction, for whom the Lord loves he corrects;  even as a father the son in whom he delights:
Proverbs Chapter 3 v 11-12

The beginning of knowledge

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge:  but fools despise wisdom and instruction.  My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of they mother:  For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck. (Proverbs 1 7-9)
