good stuff

There's all kinds of good stuff in Proverbs. Here's just some of what's in chapter 16...



Proverbs 16:1 We can gather our thoughts, but the Lord gives the right answer.


3 Commit your work to the Lord, & then your plans will succeed.


8 It is better to be poor & godly than rich & honest.


9 We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.


18 Pride goes before destruction, & haughtiness before a fall.


19 It is better to live humbly with the poor than to share plunder with the proud.


25 There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death.


31 Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained by living a godly life.


32 It is better to be patient than powerful; it is better to have self-control than conquer a city.


33 We may throw the dice, but the Lord determines how they fall.
