My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, for they
will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your
neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in
the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your
paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment
to your bones. Proverbs 3:1-8 NIV
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Psalms 119:105 (KJV)

Praise be to the Lord my Rock,
who trains my hands for war,
my fingers for battle.
He is my loving God and my
fortress,
my stronghold and my delieverer,
my shield in whom I take refuge
Psalm 144:1,2 NIV
I saw the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my
heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will live in hope, because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will
you let your Holy One see decay. You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.
Acts 2:25-28

Love means living the way God commanded us to live. As you have heard from the beginning, His command
is this: Live a life of love. John, son of Zebedee, 2 John 1:6 NCV
The wise in heart are called discerning, and pleasant words promote instruction.
Understanding is a fountain of life to those who have it, but folly brings punishment to fools. A wise man's heart guides
his mouth, and his lips promote instruction. Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. King
Solomon, Proverbs 16:21-24 NIV
