Proverbs 3:21-23   The word of God as presented in the Holy Scriptures, is a compendium that may not be understood unless taken as a whole document.

Focus: Psalms 119:105 - KJV 105. NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.   Proverbs 6:20-23   The world is covered with darkness and gross darkness the people.
