A little wisdom may be of value in times when we struggle:
Proverbs 3
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
25Have no fear of sudden disaster
or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,
26 for the LORD will be your confidence
and will keep your foot from being snared.
Proverbs 12
25 An anxious heart weighs a man down,
but a kind word cheers him up.
Prov 15
23 A man finds joy in giving an apt reply—
and how good is a timely word!
Prov 16
3 Commit to the LORD whatever you do,
and your plans will succeed
19 Better to be lowly in spirit and among the oppressed
than to share plunder with the proud.
Prov 17
3 The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold,
but the LORD tests the heart.
Prov 18
10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower;
the righteous run to it and are safe.
Prov 20
9 Who can say, "I have kept my heart pure;
I am clean and without sin"?
24 A man's steps are directed by the LORD.
How then can anyone understand his own way?
27 The lamp of the LORD searches the spirit of a man;
it searches out his inmost being.
Prov 28
13 He who conceals his sins does not prosper,
but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy
Prov 30
5 "Every word of God is flawless;
he is a shield to those who take refuge
Blessings, Marc
