d look ugly. Don't harbor them. BIBLE PRECEPTS. Faithful is the Bible word for success. He that is faithful, is faithful in that which is least. Owe no man anything. Render to all their dues. Be not wise in your own conceits. A wise son maketh a glad father; but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother. Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you. Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom. Her ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace.

"The Lord prospered him," gave him favor with princes and made him the greatest statesman of his age. Job was a "perfect and upright man, one that feared God." Satan said of him, "Doth Job fear God for nought?" Satan then deprived him of his family, property and health.
