It is one theme I want to do a word study on one of these days - perhaps to tackle as a message at the Mission.Jerry Boueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11939572388745111915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8899180705701036800.post-12195673616016424922010-05-12T18:10:54.447-05:002010-05-12T18:10:54.447-05:00I am so enjoying the Proverb a Day in May and your...I am so enjoying the Proverb a Day in May and your notes have all been wonderful. Thank you, Bro. Brad. There is so much good in this chapter. Darci, I love V. 4 also about a virtuous woman being a crown to her husband.Judy Duckworthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8899180705701036800.post-30816764339404454382010-05-12T14:50:34.097-05:002010-05-12T14:50:34.097-05:00I like verse 4 "A virtuous woman is a crown t...I like verse 4 "A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness to his bones". I like that a good wife makes her husband better. <br /><br />One of Lily's memory verses for this year was verse 18, "There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health". What you say can cut so deep, but kind words heal wounds and make people feel good inside. (Or at least that is what I tell Lily)<br /><br />Verse 15 was also a memory verse this year, "The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise." It is so important to get godly counsel, b/c everyone is right in their own eyes.Darcinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8899180705701036800.post-68458672717499029742010-05-12T12:53:54.386-05:002010-05-12T12:53:54.386-05:00Verse 11 deals with work and speaks about working ...Verse 11 deals with work and speaks about working quietly in your own land. When you follow vain people who tell you how to get your bread without the work, you show your lack of understanding of the fact that God has ordained that we work.Brad Gilberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890980972231485330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8899180705701036800.post-55632956748495992162010-05-12T07:05:48.498-05:002010-05-12T07:05:48.498-05:00I don't follow the lead-in for verse 11 -- but...I don't follow the lead-in for verse 11 -- but do understand that working for one's bread is God's plan.<br /><br />My favorite verse in this chapter is: Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. <br />[Proverbs 12:25 KJV]<br /><br />God's word is alway lifting burdens.Phyllis Blickensderferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206757687699759551noreply@blogger.com
