I love it too... Searching for them helps brings me much joy... My son just asked me to pick my 10 favorite proverbs and have them made up for his little ones... I have no clue how I will get by with just 10 but then he said "God did fine with the 10 commandment".. Dorie Dillard

You proverbs make us think and on a Sunday morning it is good to reflect. We always say "stick and stones..." but the tongue is a mightly instrument in and of itself....

Richard and Beth Witt - Proverbs is one of my favorite books too. You listed 2 of my favorites; numbers 8 & 9. Our thoughts and our words are two of the most powerful weapons on earth and few people control either.

Beth, #2 resonates with me so well.  I know that I can lay my head down on my pillow every night and sleep … because I have done no harm that day.
