Proverbs 10 : 1-9

   
1 The proverbs of Solomon.
A wise son maketh a glad father:
but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing:
but righteousness delivereth from death.
3 The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish:
but he casteth away the substance of the wicked.
4 He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand:
but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5 He that gathereth in summer is a wise son:
but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.
6 Blessings are upon the head of the just:
but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
7 The memory of the just is blessed:
but the name of the wicked shall rot.
8 The wise in heart will receive commandments:
but a prating fool shall fall.
9 He that walketh uprightly walketh surely:
but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.



Today's Prayer...



Lord our God,

Let your light shine in our hearts,
the light that can gladden us and lead us
until all our longing is stilled.
May the higher nature born in us become ever
stronger so that the lower and perishable nature
does not rule over us.
Grant that we may overcome and that our hearts
may rejoice in being allowed to strive for the
highest good because we are your children
who can share in what is eternal.



In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
