Proverbs to Remember One

Wisdom requires God’s input, right? God wants us to think right and do right. So, He tells us how, in short, to-the-point sentences. You’ll see this in the statement “Man Says”. But “God says” how to think and act His way in these Proverbs. “Proverbs to Remember One-Three” has 72 Proverbs taken from the 31 chapters. They cover about 25 topics (Anger, Temptation, Forgiveness, Hope, Trust, Wisdom, Family, Money).
