From our reading of Proverbs 10 through 12 for today. A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight. When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

I Poured Out My Complaint
I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication. I poured out my complaint before Him; I shewed before Him my trouble. When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then Thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a …

Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not Thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit. Cause me to hear Thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in Thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up …

Praising the LORD for His Goodness
"Oh that men would praise the LORD for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

Arrows of the Almighty
Arrows are a long shaft, with feathers on the notch end to a pointed end that is shot by a bow. It is a weapon for killing in most cases. It is used in deer hunting, and other forms of hunting. Some schools even have archery events; which I find a bit hypocritical; though I …
