ReplyDeleteHello sw,
ReplyDelete'Silence may be considered a virtue yet the power of silence only when wisdom has advised it. sw'
What you say here brings to mind Proverbs ch. 3 v. 7b, and we learn from God when it is wise to refrain from speaking in given situations.
'Man does not live because he has bread, he also has to consume it. sw'
What you say here reminds me of James ch. 1 v. 22:-
'But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves'
As I looked through all of your writings (proverbs) I realize what a deep thinking and honest person you are.
We can not hide from God and 'as a man thinks in his heart, so he is'
Thanks for such kind words Brenda!
