Bible Commentary

Proverbs 25:13

Cold snow at harvest time would have been extraordinarily refreshing in the heat of ancient Near Eastern summers. The faithful messenger — who delivers the message accurately and on time — provides that same relief and refreshment to those who depend on them.

Memory phrase: Be a faithful messenger always.

Talk about it: What makes a messenger truly faithful? What would happen if they changed the message?

Prayer: God, help me be faithful and reliable in everything I am sent to do.
