Friday!

Proverbs!

Oil and incense bring joy to the heart, 

and the sweetness of a friend is counsel to the soul.

Proverbs 27:9 BSB

My guess is that the oil and incense are emblems of worship, the elements that remind the writer of who God is, elements of the temple. 

These things speak to him. 

It's good to have those things, and allow them to speak. What are those emblems for you?

In the same way, is a friend. 

When you think of your friend, how does their friendship speak to your soul?

What does their friendship say to you?

Say about you?

In this busy world our souls need counsel, need the sweetness of friendship, and this busy world's people need our friendship.

May your heart today be blessed by a friend, and the reminder of the elements that you are our God's beloved.
