This chapter was awesome I really enjoyed it. this chapter open my eyes. To some things I really didn 't understand

Some people feast on complaining about every thing, they look for the bad in the good instead of the good in the bad!

better to meet that bear than to lie about me and take my child away!

We all need to look in the mirror, especially me. Phil 4,13

When you sow evil you reap evil

this is the verse that makes me know that not having a cheerfull heart makes one sick that 's spell out dries the bone one word cancer and yet Gods word tells me we can be heal from any sickness just by being cheerfull in time of illness thank YOU LORD

The man who has understanding is full of wisdom but he who seeks foolish things sees with eyes that are earthly not from above but from below.

What a wonderful day! Thank you LORD for filling my day with your presence. Thank you for sending Jesus to save me and your Holy Spirit to guide me. Thank you for my family and friends and Love.

Merry is to Rejoice Happy Glad That is the best medicine So I will take my medicine and be well Praise God !! If someone or something has broken your spirit then you will become dried up and calcified and good for nothing. Giving up on living will dry you up. Rejoice and be Glad God sent Jesus to give us life and life more abundantly.

The Bible says we should cast all our fears on him for he cares for us. The problems we are facing in this world is what to eat, drink etc. but if we can allow him to have his way, our heart will does good like a medicine. We should forget about worry and anxiety.

This is why we tell people to consider the source when they are told something. Gossip is a weapon of the enemy.

Could this gift mean a talent such as singing, playing an instrument, etc. ?

The lord has to reveal the meaning of this word. The Lord gives wisdom out of his mouth comes understanding.

Get your doctor to tell you a joke instead of giving you tablets Be happy in God

It is a blessing how the Word just hits a note and resonates in the heart of the believer... that is like nothing else. I love the way that God weaves the truth into my living and learning experience. Verse 22 has spoken to my heart.
