*A thought*:

The quarrel between the men of Israel 

and the men of Judah (whose words were "fiercer than the words of the men of Israel" 2 Sam.19:43 (Amplified Version)) might have been avoided if they had acted according to the key truth in Proverbs 15:1. Try it the next time you find yourself on the verge of a quarrel.

*Week #18 Memory Verse*:

Isaiah 48:17

This is what the Lord says - your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: 'I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go'.
