[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series]

The wisest know how ignorant they are,
and how much more there is to know,
and even what they know, they’ve not, with care
applied, worked hard to wiser grow.

But He with power to hold within his hands
the wind, and sea and waves enfold,
knows everything, all things He understands –
so listen! to the truth He’s told.

His revelation relevant and full,
with promised care of all who trust
to help them live where this world’s falsehoods pull,
kept safe from foolishness and lust.
Tune: 10 8 10 8
Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Proverbs 30:5

Everything true Rhiannon, yes even a fool is wise in his own mind. Goes back to his own lunch like a dog. A clever man hides his knowledge and is quiet, a fool shouts out his folly in rage and fury. Even a fool is counted wise if he doesn't speak. As in Proverbs.

We've had a few days pleasant weather now. Sunny. But there was still a bit of trouble with the electricity.

Have great week & Nolan

Thank you. Need to realise who has all knowledge and wisdom, and so much he shares.

Always difficult to remember that down your way the seasons are opposite! We are in a variable late Spring. Rhiannon
