Click here to read Proverbs 12
This is another chapter that compares the consequences of evil versus the life of the good.
I think the verse that jumps out at me the most is verse 16:
A fool is quick-tempered,
but a wise person stays calm when insulted.
I tend to be a little too quick tempered for my own good.
The last verse is also really good:
The way of the godly leads to life;
that path does not lead to death.
That's the path I want to be on!
25 Worry weighs a person down;
ReplyDeletean encouraging word cheers a person up.
That one jumped out at me being that I am the last of the all-time worry-warts.
Proverbs 12
ReplyDelete4 A wife with strength of character is the crown of her husband, but the wife who disgraces him is like bone cancer.
Today is our 28th wedding anniversary.
15 A stubborn fool considers his own way the right one, but a person who listens to advice is wise.
I have finally become a listener!!
My husband is a jewel.
Years ago I got my husband a blarney stone replica for Christmas that has written on it, "Living with an Irish woman builds character."
