Honour - and a Well-Lived Life


Yesterday was a BIG day for all our familiy and friends.
I think we all did a great job honouring Mervyn William Locke.
I was reading from Proverbs 10 this morning and my mind was flooded with these powerful Word-truths... and they made me think of Merv.
Wise son, glad father….…
… an honest life is immortal.
Blessings accrue on a good and honest life…
A good and honest life is a blessed memorial…..
The mouth of a good person is a deep, life-giving well
You'll find wisdom on the lips of a person of insight…
The wage of a good person is exuberant life

…..the wise measure their words.
The speech of a good person is worth waiting for….
The talk of a good person is rich fare for many…..
God's blessing makes life rich; nothing we do can improve on God.
When the storm is over, there's nothing left of the wicked; good people, firm on their rock foundation, aren't even fazed.

The Fear-of-God expands your life
The aspirations of good people end in celebration….

God is solid backing to a well-lived life….

Good people last—they can't be moved.
A good person's mouth is a clear fountain of wisdom.
The speech of a good person clears the air….
What do you think?
