That’s the title and text for the coming Sunday School lesson.

I awoke with a smashing headache, so I’m not straining my brain much. Though I don’t know how this verse connects to the lesson title, it stands out to me:

“If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast thought evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth” (Proverbs 30:32).

I need more humility.

And more pure and noble thoughts.

An inheritance for my grandchildren — what will it be?

Not money, that’s for sure, nor any other kind of material wealth.

A prospering business? (See previous statement.)

A successful ministry? That’s not likely either.

A good name? Ha!

Yet there’s this:

“A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just” (Proverbs 13:22).

What am I leaving to my children and my grandchildren?
