I love the book of Proverbs. When my daily devotion book list Proverbs as the scripture for the day, I sometime get caught up in it and read like it is a fortune cookie. Today it said a lot in a few words. " An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up." Proverbs 12:25 Another version of the Bible read: " Worry can rob you of happiness, but kind words will cheer you up." The Bible I use the most is GOOD NEWS BIBLE Today's English Version. It is the one I received when Truman and I went on a retreat in 1986 called DE COLORES Mississippi CURSILLO #18. It was so good. Anyway this Bible has little pictures across the top of each page and they illustrate certain verses on that page. So interesting. Either version sends a message to think about. END OF SERMON, for today.

P.S. When I read Proverbs, I picture this old wise man sitting high up someplace and I am wondering if he is Chinese? Giving out good advice. Maybe and maybe not.
