Songs for today: 
My Lighthouse
He Reigns

Those who forsake the law praise the wicked,
But those who keep the law strive with them.
•••
Better is the poor who walks in his integrity
Than he who is crooked though he be rich.
•••
He who turns away his ear from listening to the law,
Even his prayer is an abomination.
•••
He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper,
But he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion.
•••
He who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor
Than he who flatters with the tongue.
from Proverbs 28
