Proverbs 25:25-28

Like a drink of cool water refreshes a weary, thirsty soul, so hearing good news revives the spirit. When a lover of God gives in and compromises with wickedness, it can be compared to contaminating a stream with sewage or polluting a fountain. It’s good to eat sweet things, but you can take too much. It’s good to be honored, but to seek words of praise is not honor at all. If you live without restraint and are unable to control your temper, you’re as helpless as a city with broken-down defenses, open to attack.
