Send us Fan MailLord Loves Godly21 No harm comes to the godly,     but the wicked have their fill of trouble.22 The Lord detests lying lips,     but he delights in those who tell the truth.Verse 21God protects good people. He does not protect evil people. See Psalm 91.Verse 22Sometimes, we need to remember simple facts. Some wise words are complex, like a puzzle. Other wise words are very easy to understand. Even a little child can understand this verse.So, does bad stuff ever happen to good folks? Well, sometimes it does. But what the first proverb is getting at is that, generally, trouble tends to skip over the good guys and land on the bad ones.Sure, there might be exceptions where good people face trouble or bad people seem to get off scot-free. But it's smarter to plan your life based on the general rule rather than those rare exceptions.I heard this interesting story in a mystery audiobook once. The detective cracked a case using a clue from Proverbs 12:22. He remembered it because his dad, who was a minister, taught him Bible verses when he was young. It's fiction, sure, but it's true that things we learn as kids tend to stick with us.Lemme ask you, think about your own upbringing. Did your parents teach you any Scripture verses that helped you through tough times?Nowadays, with all the fake news out there, people's attitudes towards lying have shifted.
