Verses from Mark and Proverbs

Probably about a year ago, I wrote down three verses on three peices of paper, and my mom found them not too long ago, and hung them up on the computer desk. A couple days ago, I read over them, and their really good verses! So I wanted to share them with you:

"Charm can fool you, and beauty can trick you,

but a woman who respects the Lord

should be praised."

Proverbs 31:30

I think that one is really good for all you girls reading this.

"After Jesus called the crowd to him again, He said,

'Every person should listen to me and

understand what I am saying. There is nothing people

put into their bodies that makes them unclean.

People are made unclean by the things

that come out of them. Let those with ears use them, and listen.'"

Mark 7:14-15

This next one is pretty much the same, but more detailed

"And Jesus said, 'The things that come out of people are the things that make them unclean. All these evil things begin inside people, in the mind: evil thoughts, sexual sins, stealing, murder, adultry, greed, evil actions, lying, doing sinful things, jealousy, speaking evil of others, pride, and foolish living. All these evil things come from inside and make people unclean.'"

Mark 7:20-23

Take the time to read over these verses several times, to really understand them. Usually, you (not you literally, but people) read it the first time, and only get half of what it's saying. Read it several times so you can really understand what Jesus was saying.
