Song for Today:
In The Sweet By and By
Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,
but he who hates reproof is stupid.
•••
Better to be lowly and have a servant
than to play the great man and lack bread.
•••
Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread,
but he who follows worthless pursuits lacks sense.
•••
From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied with good,
and the work of a man’s hand comes back to him.
•••
There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts,
but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
•••
Truthful lips endure forever,
but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
from Proverbs 12
