Psalm 34:11-14 Come, O children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. Which of you desires life, and covets many days to enjoy good? Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

Proverbs 18:16-17 A gift opens doors; it gives access to the great. The one who first states a case seems right, until the other comes and cross-examines.

Romans 12:3, 13 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think, but to think with sober judgement, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.
