I enjoyed putting this collection of Proverbs together. I hope you enjoyed them and I welcome your comments.
I like the wisdom in all of them but my favorite would have to be #7... I would love to be one of the wise folks that can do this... (Can you imagine Me saying very little and staying calm... Dear Lord please help me!!!)
You know what... I just re-read all of these proverbs and I think they all ROCK!!!
