July 21st 2018 – Proverbs 17:4-7

An evildoer listens to wicked lips,     and a liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue. Whoever mocks the poor insults his Maker;     he who is glad at calamity will not go unpunished. Grandchildren are the crown of the aged,     and the glory of children

July 20th 2018 – Proverbs 17:1-3

A man of violence entices his neighbour     and leads him in a way that is not good. Whoever winks his eyes plans dishonest things;     he who purses his lips brings evil to pass. Grey hair is a crown of glory;     it is gained in a

July 18th 2018 – Proverbs 16:25-28

There is a way that seems right to a man,     but its end is the way to death. A worker’s appetite works for him;     his mouth urges him on. A worthless man plots evil,     and his speech is like a scorching fire. A

July 17th 2018 – Proverbs 16:20-24

Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good,     and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord. The wise of heart is called discerning,     and sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness. Good sense is a fountain of life to him who has it,     but the

How much better to get wisdom than gold!     To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. The highway of the upright turns aside from evil;     whoever guards his way preserves his life. Pride goes before destruction,     and a haughty spirit before

July 14th 2018 – Proverbs 16:10-15

An oracle is on the lips of a king;     his mouth does not sin in judgement. A just balance and scales are the Lord’s;     all the weights in the bag are his work. It is an abomination to kings to do

The plans of the heart belong to man,     but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,     but the Lord weighs the spirit. Commit your work to the Lord,     and your plans
