Was Grandma Right?

Most of us probably grew up around grandparents
and great grandparents who would impart words of wisdom.

They had wonderful intentions,
but were they right?

And was it Biblical?

Just a few of Grandma's sayings with Bible verses

If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.
Colossians 4:6 Let your conversation be always full of grace...

Actions speak louder than words.
1 John 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, 
but in deed and in truth.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Proverbs 7:1-3 My son, keep my words, and treasure my commands
within you.  Keep my commands and live, and my law as the apple of your eye.
An apple has many health benefits. Apples have antioxidants 
which fight disease.  God's word is like the apples antioxidants, with it
we have life. 
Proverbs 4:22  For they are life to those who find them,
and health to all their flesh.

The best things in life are free.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, 
and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God

There is nothing more valuable than the free gift of salvation.

Grandma was full of wisdom!
