1 Samuel 25.24-44. Abigail mediates between David, with his sword drawn in anger, and Nabal, her foolish, arrogant husband. Her words of wisdom, grace and humility are so instructive for us all in our own relationships. Several characteristics of wisdom are noted for our own learning and growth. 

1 Samuel 25:1-23. There are so many practical lessons from the life of David. He had just passed one test, in sparing Saul’s life, but is just about to fail another, in destroying the house of Nabal in anger and reaction. Thankfully God was going to intervene. 

Psalm 19:14 In the refelctive Psalm, we see God address the principles of the words we speak and also the deep meditations or thoughts of the heart. The psalmist desires for them to be acceptable and pleasing to God. This is a wonderful prayer and principal for us all today.
