but a harsh word stirs up anger.
The tongue of the wise commends knowledge,
but the mouth of the fool gushes folly.
A happy heart makes the face cheerful,
but heartache crushes the spirit.
All the days of the oppressed are wretched,
but the cheerful heart has a continual feast.
Better a little with the fear of the Lord,
than great wealth with turmoil.
Better a meal of vegetables where there is love
than a fattened calf with hatred.
The Lord is far from the wicked,
but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
A cheerful look brings joy to the heart,
and good news gives health to the bones.
The fear of the Lord teaches a man wisdom,
and humility comes before honor."
Good & Evil
At times it seems that God has let evil run rampant in the world,
and we wonder if he even notices it.
But God sees everything clearly!!
Right now, his work may be unseen and unfelt,
but don't give up or give in.
One day He will wipe out evil and punish the evildoers,
just as there is a great reward awaiting those who
walked faithfully following His teachings.
