Body Language

   We can communicate in two ways, verbal and non-verbal. We can speak volumes without uttering a word. Examples of such non-verbal communication are found in the Book of Proverbs.

Who winks with his eyes, who signals with his feet,

who points with his fingers; who with perversity in his heart

continually devises evil, who spreads strife.

6:13-14

There is a kind--oh how lofty are his eyes!

And his eyelids are raised in arrogance.

30:13

A joyful heart makes a cheerful face, but when the heart is sad,

the spirit is broken.

15:13

Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she smiles at the future.

31:25

"A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest"-- your poverty will come in like a vagabond

and your need like an armed man.

6:10-11

He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will also

cry himself and not be answered.

21:13

He whose ear listens to the life-giving reproof

will dwell among the wise.

15:31

Lesson: Our actions say plenty--loud and clear.

Be careful what you say!
