Bible Commentary

Proverbs 25:25

The image is of deep, soul-level refreshment. Good news — especially from afar where no news had come — provides genuine relief and joy. This is why the Gospel, good news from God, is so named: it is exactly this refreshment, arriving at the deepest point of human thirst.

Memory phrase: Good news refreshes every soul.

Talk about it: What is some good news that made you feel truly refreshed and happy inside?

Prayer: God, thank You for the good news of Your love and grace.
