a) A fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the Earth. There is no reality, only dreaming.
b) A foolish child brings grief to their father.
c) A foolish child brings bitterness to their mother.
d) Sensible people keep their eyes glued on Wisdom.
(This QT reminds me: Do Not Be Foolish)

‘Loving The Lord.’
Psalm 116:1-6.
a) Psalm 116:1. We can love the Lord because He hears and answers our prayers.

c) Psalm 116:3-4. When life is really difficult we can call on the Name of the Lord to save us.
d) Psalm 116:5. This God of ours is:-
1- Kind.

(Through this Second one I am encouraged to be Loving The Lord)

One of the greatest lessons for us through the Book of Psalms is that we can really express our hearts to the Lord. Some of us may have been brought up in environments where prayer was always restrained and “respectable”. That kind of prayer may have its genuine place in some Church services. The Bible, however, clearly teaches us that in our personal prayer we can really express our hearts to the Lord.
