The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the well-spring of wisdom as a flowing brook.\u00a0 Proverbs 18:4<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This sentence expresses the depth, the abundance, the\u00a0\u00a0clearness, and the force of the counsels of the wise man…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When “a man has intermeddled with all wisdom,” his words are in themselves deep waters, and in their communication fruitful\u00a0as a flowing brook.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

His wisdom is a well-spring,’ which send up full brooks, that\u00a0are ready to overflow their banks. So plentiful is he in, good discourse and wholesome counsel ! ‘…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

…No blessing is more valuable than a “rich indwelling of the word,” ready to be brought out on all suitable occasions of instruction. If the wise man sometimes “spares his words,” it\u00a0 is not for want of matter, but for greater edification. The \u00a0stream is ready to flow, and sometimes can scarely be restrained.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

.<\/p>\n

The cold – hearted, speculative professor has his flow – sometimes a torrent of words, yet without a drop of profitable matter; chilling,even when doctrinally correct; without life, unction, or love.<\/p>\n

Lord ! deliver us from this barren “talk of the lips.”<\/p>\n
