Proverbs for the day: Chapter 14

"Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish one tears it down w/ her own hands."

"In all labor their is profit..."

"A truthful witness saves lives..."

"Reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, that one may avoid the snares of death."

"He who is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who is hasty of spirit exposes and exalts his folly."

" A calm and undisturbed mind and heart are the life and health of the body, but envy, jealousy, and wrath are like rottenness of the bones."

"Uprightness and right standing with God (moral and spiritual recititude in every area and relation) elevate a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people."

--When I'm not sure where else to read, I read a Proverb-a-Day. There's 31 of them, so perfect for a monthly reading plan. :) Plus, I like that it's so practical! Just little tidbits of wisdom on every issue.--
