Proverbs 12:15, 18, 25-26

Proverbs 12:15 TPT

A fool is in love with his own opinion, but wisdom means being teachable.

Proverbs 12:18 TPT

Reckless words are like the thrusts of a sword, cutting remarks meant to stab and to hurt. But the words of the wise soothe and heal.

Proverbs 12:25-26 TPT

Anxious fear brings depression, but a life-giving word of encouragement can do wonders to restore joy to the heart. Lovers of God give good advice to their friends, but the counsel of the wicked will lead them astray.
