The Lord detests people with crooked hearts,
but he delights in those with integrity ...
A beautiful woman who lacks discretion
is like a gold ring in a pig's snout ...
The seeds of good deeds become a tree of life;
a wise person wins friends.
~ Proverbs 11:20, 22, 30 ~
The 3rd in a series of Sabbath Scriptures as we embrace The Year of Beautiful!

Oink. Oink. (We collect little piggy figurines at our house -- esp. ones with wings that fly, so this post has a special place in my heart.)

Hope you're having a cozy weekend, Lyli. It's brutal cold here in NY's Mid-Hudson Valley ... and the snow absolutely refuses to stop drifting down! I'm thankful to be huddled under my very toasty blanket!
if only you could see the smile on my face!
ReplyDeletehave a blessed Lord's day
Smilin' right back at you, my friend! May your sabbath celebration be a sacred start to the week ahead ...
DeleteI always love thinking of how He delights in us. I love that word delight.
ReplyDeleteYes, Beth. That makes me smile ...
DeleteWhat a faith to share, one laden with delight.
I often think of this verse in talking of modesty...both in dress and actions...with women. Imagine a shiny gold ring rooting around in the dirt! It creates such a picture, doesn't it?
ReplyDeletemmm ... I wonder if that's one of the reasons God created the animals first ... He KNEW they'd have much to teach us!

ReplyDeleteWhat an image to keep lodged in our minds ... THAT'LL keep us on the straight and narrow, yes?

I truly love the photo because it reminds me of our pig, "Table". He was a happy pig.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed week!
Table. Love that, Rona! Thanks for sharing that bit of a memory with us tonight. I hope you have a really great week, my friend!
