Relationship with god Quote by Glen Rambharack
“Why should we plot harm against our neighbors, who lives trustfully near us, or accuse a man for no reason, when he has done us no harm? Why do we envy a violent man or choose any of his ways? The LORD detests a perverse man. He takes the upright into his confidence. His curse is on the house of the wicked. He blesses the home of the righteous! He mocks proud people who likes to boast! He gives grace to the humble. The wise inherit honor. Fools he holds up to shame !!”
