Prov 20:11
Even an child is known by his actions, by whether his conduct is pure and right.
How much more are we as adults known by our actions?  And what example do we set before the children?

Proverbs 24:17-18 warns us to not gloat and rejoice when our enemies fall.  The Lord does not approve.

Prov 12:25
An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up.
Often carrying a burden will weigh down a person. We have an obligation as Believers in Jesus to cheer up that person. We can do this in many ways; a kind word, a telephone call, a card in the mail, an  email message, a hug, a pat on the back, a favorite Bible verse, etc.
Is there someone you need to cheer up today?

Proverbs 16:18
Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.
The first sin, pride, was committed by Lucifer. That led to his destruction.

Prov 3:9-10
Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.
What a great promise for us. If we honor God with our wealth we will benefit from His good promises.  He doesn’t want our leftovers.

He wants our best.

After all He gave us His best!
