He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: But he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat. He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: But whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered. He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: But he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.

And those who respond to that invitation will find the peace of God’s presence. They’ll have access to joy that can’t be taken away by ...
