Words of Wisdom
Keeping your heart:
Don't demand an audience with the king or push for a place among the great. It is better to wait for an invitation than to be sent to the end of the line, publicly disgraced (Proverbs 25: 6-97)
Cast not your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again, and rend you (Matthew 7: 6).
Keep your hearts with all diligence, for out of it springs the issues of life (Proverbs 4: 23).
When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it. ( Matthew 13:46)
Conversation:
Whatsoever things are true, honest, pure, lovely, of good report, if there be any virtue, of if there be any praise,
think of these things. (Philippians 4: 8).
Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone. (Colossians 4:6).
Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and healing to the bones (Proverbs 16:24).
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger who announces peace, who brings good news, who announces salvation (Isaiah 52: 7).
Love:
I Corinthians 13: 4-7
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5 It is not rude, it is not selfseeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Role of a man and his love for his wife: Ephesians 5:25 -33
25Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her ......
28In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church–
31“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”
33However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;
20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions
21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law.
