A good medicine

Proverbs 17:22

A cheerful heart is good medicine,
 but a crushed  spirit dries up the bones.

Table bearers and the lazy

Proverbs 18:8-9
 
The words of a gossip are like choice morsels;
 they go down to the inmost parts.
    One who is slack in his work
 is brother to one who destroys.

True and false refuge

Proverbs 18:10

The name of the Lord is a fortified tower;
 the righteous run to it and are safe.

Two indisputable facts

Proverbs 18:11-12

The wealth of the rich is their fortified city;
 they imagine it a wall too high to scale.
    Before a downfall the heart is haughty,
 but humility comes before honor.

John 1:12

Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God... —
Isn't it incredible that we are called children of God!? But that is exactly what we are! (cf. 1 John 3:1-3) We are God's children. Our Father created the universe with its billions and billions of planets. Our Father paints a new sunset every day and chases away the darkness every morning. Our Father not only loves us, but claims us as his own and will bring us to his eternal home. Why? Because we heard his message in Jesus. Because we received his grace offered in his Son. Incredible! Glorious! Grace!
