Read the Story

Proverbs says, A righteous man respects the life of his animal. God wants us to take care of our pets and animals.

Proverbs says that a wise person listens to good advice. A foolish person thinks he is always right.

When people are worried, their hearts feel heavy. But a kind word makes it glad. Proverbs also says God delights in those who tell the truth.

Memory Verse

“Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but a kind word makes it glad.”
