Proverbs 9:17 Stolen water is sweet; food eaten in secret is delicious.

Here is a favorite question at church gatherings... what's your favorite verse? People say ones like John 3:16 - for God so loved the world..., Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you..., Philippians 4:13 - I can do all things through God... Proverbs 3:5 & 6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart... 1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins... 1 Corinthians 10:13 - No temptations has seized you...Hebrews 10:25 Let us not give up meeting together... and many more.

What are yours!

Mine are John 11:35 & Proverbs 9:17. The first because it was the shortest verse in the Bible growing up (Job 2:3 is now), and the second, because I get to explain how scripture can be twisted to fit any belief when not taken in context.

A and K, The father of the Hetrick singers spoke at church years back and said his daughters were going to sing his favorite song, then the next time he stood he said it again, then again and again. Soon we realized that these songS were all special to him. Ladies, make the things of God your favorite part of life. His Word is so full and rich that once you begin to see all the promises he has, the Scriptures will become your favorite. Google favorite verses and see how sweet and delicious it is!
