GOODMORNING
Psalm 32
1 Blessed is the one
whose transgressions are forgiven,
whose sins are covered.
2 Blessed is the one
whose sin the LORD does not count against them
and in whose spirit is no deceit.
3 When I kept silent,
my bones wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
4 For day and night
your hand was heavy on me;
my strength was sapped
as in the heat of summer.[b]
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you
and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess
my transgressions to the LORD.”
And you forgave
the guilt of my sin.
6 Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
while you may be found;
surely the rising of the mighty waters
will not reach them.
7 You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.
9 Do not be like the horse or the mule,
which have no understanding
but must be controlled by bit and bridle
or they will not come to you.
10 Many are the woes of the wicked,
but the LORD’s unfailing love
surrounds the one who trusts in him.
11 Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous;
sing, all you who are upright in heart!

GOODMORNING!
Proverbs 24
-19-
1 Don’t be jealous of crooks
or want to be their friends.
2All they think about
and talk about
is violence and cruelty.
-20-
3 Use wisdom and understanding
to establish your home;
4let good sense fill the rooms
with priceless treasures.
-21-
5 Wisdom brings strength,
and knowledge gives power.
6Battles are won
by listening to advice
and making a lot of plans.
-22-
7 Wisdom is too much for fools!
Their advice is no good.
-23-
8 No one but troublemakers
think up trouble.
9Everyone hates senseless fools
who think up ways to sin.
-24-
10 Don’t give up and be helpless
in times of trouble.
-25-
11 Don’t fail to rescue those
who are doomed to die.
12Don’t say, “I didn’t know it!”
God can read your mind.
He watches each of us
and knows our thoughts.
And God will pay us back
for what we do.
-26-
13 Honey is good for you,
my children,
and it tastes sweet.
14Wisdom is like honey
for your life–
if you find it,
your future is bright.
-27-
15 Don’t be a cruel person
who attacks good people
and hurts their families.
16Even if good people
fall seven times,
they will get back up.
But when trouble strikes
the wicked,
that’s the end of them.
-28-
17 Don’t be happy
to see your enemies trip
and fall down.
18The LORD will find out
and be unhappy.
Then he will stop
being angry with them.
-29-
19 Don’t let evil people
worry you
or make you jealous.
20They will soon be gone
like the flame of a lamp
that burns out.
-30-
21 My children, you must respect
the LORD and the king,
and you must not make friends
with anyone
who rebels
against either of them.
22Who knows what sudden disaster
the LORD or a ruler
might bring?
More Sayings That Make Good Sense
23Here are some more sayings
that make good sense:
When you judge,
you must be fair.
24If you let the guilty
go free,
people of all nations
will hate and curse you.
25But if you punish the guilty,
things will go well for you,
and you will prosper.
26Giving an honest answer
is a sign
of true friendship.
27Get your fields ready
and plant your crops
before starting a home.
28Don’t accuse anyone
who isn’t guilty.
Don’t ever tell a lie
29or say to someone,
“I’ll get even with you!”
30I once walked by the field
and the vineyard
of a lazy fool.
31Thorns and weeds
were everywhere,
and the stone wall
had fallen down.
32When I saw this,
it taught me a lesson:
33Sleep a little. Doze a little.
Fold your hands
and twiddle your thumbs.
34Suddenly poverty hits you
and everything is gone!
WHA REALLY A GWAAN?
The woman, who was prominently featured on television some years ago, reportedly fell victim to a group of at least five rapists when she returned from an overseas engagement and was paying a visit to her relatives in St Ctaherine.
The police told THE WEEKEND STAR that it appeared as if her attackers were lurking on the premises before entering the house and holding up the occupants at gunpoint. They are said to have proceeded to rape the woman and rob her.
The incident was reported to the Ewarton police station and it was also said that the woman had to seek counselling following the frightening ordeal.
That incident is said to be the latest in a series of cases occurring in two communities in the parish.
The police say that a group of men are said to be wreaking havoc on the women in the St Catherine communities.
In another case, a 16-year-old girl was also raped over a week ago by a group of men who discovered she was home alone. The police suspect the same group of men are responsible for both acts.
Sources also told THE WEEKEND STAR that the men are linked to the theft of a shotgun in a recent robbery at a house.
Deputy Superintendent of Police, Clive Blair, the officer in charge of crime for the St Catherine North police, said the criminals are being tracked by the police and they will be brought to book.
