TRUNEWS with Rick Wiles - Morning Manna - August 18, 2025 - Proverbs 9:13-15 - The Loud Trap of Folly

Episode Date: August 18, 2025

In today’s Morning Manna, we examine how Solomon reveals the true character of foolishness—not quiet ignorance, but loud, seductive ignorance. The foolish woman is portrayed as clamorous and confidently deceitful, setting herself in a public place to ensnare those who are walking in the right way. Her aim is to divert the upright with noise, boldness, and imitation of wisdom. This passage is a warning: the enemy often disguises danger with volume, visibility, and false appeal.  Teachers:  Rick Wiles and Doc BurkhartYou can partner with us by visiting FaithandValues.com, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!AmericanReserves.comIt’s the Final Day!

Good morning, everybody. Welcome to Morning Manna. It's Monday, and we are delighted to be here to begin a new week and to finish up Chapter 9. Tomorrow will begin Chapter 10, Book of Proverbs. So today we're looking at verses 13 through 18, Proverbs chapter 9. Let's pray. Dr. Rickhart will read the Word, and we will begin our study. Almighty God, our dear Heavenly Father, Father, we love you. We love you with all our heart, mind, and soul, and we praise you. Father, we are gathered here as your sons and daughters to be fed by your Holy Spirit. And so we appeal to the Holy Spirit to take his seat at the head of the table of this Bible study class and bring forth revelation and wisdom and insight and knowledge of your word, your son, your kingdom, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. Amen. All right. Well,

it's good to be back here with you live once again here on Morning Manna. And for those of you, no matter where you are in the world, we have people checking in from Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Switzerland, and points in between and across the U.S. and Canada. Thanks for being here. We love you. And we appreciate you taking time out of your schedule to learn the Word of God together with us. We are picking back up in Proverbs chapter 9 today and beginning with verse number 13 and going to the end of the chapter today. So if you have your Bibles, read along with me, if you will. And I'm reading from the King James today. And it begins, verse 13. A foolish woman is clamorous. She is simple and knows nothing. For she sits at the door of her house on a seat in the high

places of the city, to call passengers who go ride on their ways. Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither, and as for him that wanteth understanding, she said to him, stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant, but he knoweth not that the dead are there, and that her guests are in the depths of hell. Just the language here, Rick, compelling uh people are familiar with the the couple of these verses here but people sometimes miss the the the majesty and the poetry of the words themselves and how inspired they are by the holy spirit and even in the midst of that to teach such a powerful lesson today absolutely doc and the last verse verse 18 is what everybody should pay attention to

do so let's let's recap what we've learned last week in chapter nine it started out at the beginning of last week with wisdom hath built in her house she has hewned out her seven pillars she killed her beast she mingled her wine she furnished her table she sent forth her maidens and cried cryeth upon the highest places of the city who so is simple let him turn and hither as for him that wanteth understanding she say it to him come eat of my bread drink of the wine which i have mingled forsake the foolish and live and go in the way of understanding and i think it was on tuesday we looked at verses seven through ten he that reproveth a scorner geteth to himself shame and he that rebuketh a wicked man geteth himself a blot reprove not a scorner, lust he hate thee, rebuke

a wise man, he will love me, give instruction to a wise man, he will become yet wiser, teach a just man, he will increase in learning. And well, I guess that was Wednesday. I think we began chapter 9 on Tuesday, and so then on Thursday

we had the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the holiest understanding, for by me, thy days shall be multiplied and the years of thy life shall be increased. If thou be wise, thou shall be wise for thyself. But if thy scorneth, thou alone shall bear it. Okay, so now we're at verse 13. A foolish woman is clamorous. She is simple and knoweth nothing. chapter 9 presents two women as metaphors at the beginning of chapter 9 there's a woman described as wisdom

right at the end of chapter 9 there's a woman described as foolishness and so today we're we're going to study this foolish woman who is described as clamorous. So my style of teaching is to divide each scripture into parts, and we will begin with part one of verse 13. A foolish woman is clamorous, and the modern English version is, She is simple and knows nothing. No, that's, excuse me, the first part of this verse is, the King James is, a foolish woman is clamors. The world English Bible is, the foolish woman is loud. So the Hebrew word is Hamas, which means this is the word for clamor.

to murmur to growl to rage to be boisterous so this phrase personifies folly as a a foolish woman again in contrast to the earlier portrayal of wisdom as a noble woman so this sets up a a contrast for a spiritual dichotomy between foolishness and wisdom this term clamorous or loud it does not speak only about the volume and it does include the volume but it speaks also about the attention-seeking behavior of this woman folly it's brash it's out there it's obtrusive and i mean it wants to make itself known it's seeking you know to be the center of attention yes so doc there is empty inner emptiness and that is projected outward in noise. The noise is to conceal the emptiness. So the commotion of this foolish woman reflects her chaotic self-expression. She is untethered, untied, unconnected to truth, discipline, discernment.

In ancient Middle Eastern culture, loudness, and it should still be today, loudness in public, especially from a woman, was associated with moral recklessness. and so that an observation yeah right so that that reinforces the idea of folly as disruptive to the moral order her loudness her boisterousness or clamor that she creates symbolizes more than just verbal noise It's the clamor of sin in her heart. It's her distraction. It's her seduction. Compare this woman with wisdom. The woman who is a metaphor for wisdom, calm, dignified, inviting.

Yes, a formal invitation. Yes. The foolish woman is. loud boister's seducing not inviting seducing distracting distracting this is a a spiritual metaphor for seducing in the church a lot of churches allow seducing doctrines to be introduced in their congregations. Yes. They give platforms to deceptive voices that appeal to the carnal flesh, but oppose the order of divine wisdom.

The clamorous nature of this woman also represents false teachers. ideologies that draw crowds that are that feed on emotionalism but shun truth oh this woman's loudness is reactive not reasoned she's she's governed by impulse and gratification not by godly understanding she's very oriented towards external stimulation that's good yeah it's because she's empty on the inside dog right so she's generating exterior noise and commotion to conceal the emptiness that's inside of her this loudness imitates wisdom's public call but it lacks the divine authority it lacks divine virtue it's a counterfeit appeal wisdom stands in the streets and with the dignified calm voice invites people to come and receive of her wisdom and understanding and

discretion. The foolish woman is competing with this woman of wisdom. Her voice is loud, it's boisterous, it's clamorous. She's in competition with wisdom. She's trying to get the attention of people. Don't go with her. Come over here with me. Loud voices get crowds. Yeah.

I guarantee you loud voices get crowds. And social media is a perfect example of that today, isn't it? You put two speakers side by side. One has a calm, dignified voice of reason.

wisdom and understanding and on the other platform is a loud mouth boisterous proud egotistical funny entertaining I'll guarantee you where the crowd no substance no substance no substance no substance the crowd is going with the loud mouth that's what this is teaching okay Wildness is also indicative of the agitation of her soul. She's never at peace within herself. She must constantly stir the outer world for stimulation. She has no inner peace.

She needs external stimulation. Never at peace with herself. As disciples, we must become, our silence, our silence must be our shield when foolishness gets loud. Noise does not equal truth. The best thing to do when you're right. around a loud mouth full is to be silent. Don't compete with it. Don't compete.

Yes. Are people going to be misled and take an issue? Absolutely. It's not your responsibility. That's right. All right. It's not your responsibility. As Doc,

often says to me not my circus not my monkeys yes not my rodeo not my bull i've walked away many times when i've seen people following after fools there there is a moral disorder in the loudness of this foolish woman moral disorder and her mouth spews spiritual pollution into the community whereas wisdom's mouth edifies the community edify means to build up to strengthen foolishness defiles and confuses people excuse me pardon me bless you i had a sneezing fit early this morning the house um this is not gender specific please understand these metaphors all right both are portrayed as women these are metaphors these are metaphors So the foolish woman represents the spirit of seduction, confusion, spiritual dullness.

The clamorous nature of the foolish woman is a mirror of Babylonian confusion. what happened at babylon what happened at babel what happened at babel what does babel mean when we say hey they somebody that person just babbling what does that mean well it comes from babel god confused their languages because they were determined to build a tower to heaven. And so this foolish woman's mouth is a mirror of Babel. The chaos that draws people away from God. It's animalistic. It causes one to regress to brutishness. they're descending in in value it offers enticement and no instruction then the second part says she is simple and knoweth nothing world english bible says she is undisciplined and knows nothing

simple is a pethy or pethi do you know doc which one is it pethy or pethi i don't know yeah no one knows because we don't know what vowel sounded like okay so it could be either one okay that's right p e t h i is the english spelling it it means simple naive open-minded in a dangerous sense right it's like a willful ignorance, not like, well, you're just stupid, but a willful ignorance, coupled with that sense of brashness and arrogance. So this isn't just, well, she's just a simple woman, you know, foolishness and everything. No, no, this is, she's basically putting on. She's chosen to be simple. That's right. The word simple, this is not a compliment.

No, not in this case. It denotes a person who is goggable, naive, easily led astray. Undisciplined, a moral lack of restraint. The absence of spiritual formation, spiritual training, spiritual guidance yes okay yeah that fits if you don't provide your children with spiritual formation when they're children most likely they're going to grow up to be a foolish and rebellious because they don't have they don't have any guardrails they don't have the guidelines in their life By the way, I read something yesterday, Doc, is very encouraging.

A respected polling firm said that there has been a dramatic uptick among American youth 18 to 24 in believing in God. A rejection of atheism and an embrace of the existence of God. And if you understand cycles, if you understand cycles, that shouldn't be surprising. That's right, because that's the group that's going to lead the next spiritual awakening. They're rejecting the emptiness of the baby boomers. Now, what you need to keep in mind, though, that does not necessarily mean it's godly or righteous. It means that there is that spiritual hunger that's out there. That's right.

Their souls are up for grab. They're searching. There you go. Knows nothing. As Doc said earlier, this is willful ignorance. It's a rejection of the fear of the Lord, which is the beginning of knowledge. This foolish woman embodies a state of moral negligence, a refusal to be taught a refusal to be corrected, a refusal to be refined, dignified, instructed.

It's a refusal, which means that there's rebellion. So you've got a dangerous combination in this woman. She's loud and ignorant. Her influence is widespread, but her substance is thin. wow a mile wide and an inch deep yes that is a dangerous perilous mixture to be a loud mouth and ignorant at the same time she possesses zeal without knowledge she has drive without direction She has speech without understanding, and she leads others down darkened trails. This, her, her simplicity. This is not innocence. I mean, you can describe somebody who's simple as saying, you know, he or she lives a simple life.

That's a good way, okay? That's not what this is talking about. This is spiritual immaturity that hardened into rebellion resistance. It's a, she migrated from simplicity to pride, unteachable spirit. Again, this is not talking about somebody who lives a simple life. Actually, a person who lives a simple life is a wise person. As a person who said, you know what, I just don't need a lot of the world in my life. That's nothing but trouble.

That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about when we say simpleton, a simple person, we're talking about a person who is devoid of moral understanding, who chose to be that way, and then allowed it to grow into rebellion and resists. distance against God. Wisdom, remember at the beginning of chapter nine, wisdom is a woman who builds her house with seven pillars. She offers food and drink to her visitors. But the foolish woman offers emptiness, poison. the simplicity that is in the scripture opens the door to mockery of righteousness

yes why why is this mockery because her spiritual emptiness seeks to justify it by ridiculing God's truth. Do you know people in your life that just will not listen to anything? This will not listen. You try to have a conversation. You try to impart ideas, the knowledge of God. They just shut down. They don't listen.

They resist. They'll start arguing with you. They'll change the subject. They'll say, oh, I don't want to talk about that right now. Their mind, their spirit, they are resistant to truth. See, there's something very, very wrong inside people like that. Folly. Fulishness is not passive.

It's not weak. She recruits, she seduces, she evangelizes. She has missionaries. Yes. She recruits missionaries to spread foolishness. She's very active. So she knows nothing. It means an absence of divine.

insight doesn't mean she knows you know she doesn't know how to spell her name that's not what it means it means she she has no knowledge of God's truth she has worldly wisdom she can be very educated but she has no knowledge of God's truth this is a heart that's alienated from truth and the source of truth Almighty God you you can say that one that this woman also represents apostate religion right she has rituals without holiness she's got noise in the church without revelation wow there's on a lot doesn't a dog yeah I mean what's one of the main features of the modern popular church loudness not quietness loudness how loud can we make the music how bright how flashy how you know how everything just over the top not a sense of quietness or holiness that's where the in the secret place it's not a secret

I know I've told a story in the past, but I think it's a good time to tell it again. You know, this is one of those, hey, this happened, you know, 40 years ago stories as a young Christian. I would say this is probably late 80s, early 90s, okay? And because our children were still young. And we were attending a local church that was a member of a Pentecostal denomination, a large Pentecostal denomination. There were a lot of good people in the church. I'm not, I'm not criticizing this church. There were a lot of good people there. But Doc, what I noticed is that the pastors in that denomination, and it was the same in every

church I went to in that denomination. They felt like they didn't get the, at least half of the church to come up to the front, to around the Alder, at the end of the service and be whipped up into an emotional frenzy. I think the pastors felt like they had flopped, their sermon flopped. They had to whip up this religious fervor, this grand finale of the church service. And I noticed that pattern. Well, anyhow, there was this one particular Sunday that we had to leave. What should have been the normal time, you know, to end the church service?

We had something we had to go to. I don't know. It could have been something I was going to an airport or something. I don't know. But I knew I had to depart. And as we were leaving the church, most of the congregation had been brought up to the front of the church and they were jumping and shouting and yelling. and yelling and you know to get God's attention and as I as I got to the back of the

church ready to go into the foyer I took a look at the commotion and I said to the Lord father I just can't do that anymore I just can't go up there and jump and yell anymore and I heard the Holy Spirit say son the power is not in the jumping it's in the standing who praise god and i set free doc i was set free of that religious spirit because it was hey i got to jump up and down and shout and you know god's got a lot of people trying to get his attention on sunday morning Like, hey, the church that can shout the loud of us is the one that's going to get God to look.

That's religion. And what the Lord was teaching me was to stand, not jump, it's just stand. And so in this verse, we see the foolish woman is the one who's jumping. She's loud. She's clamorous. She's getting attention. She's making noise. The wise woman stands.

She's dignified. She's got class. Okay. She's just got class. But the foolish woman doesn't have any class. She's loud. She's boisterous. She'll do and say anything just to get a crowd.

Wisdom says, I'd love to have a crowd, but I'll love to have a crowd, but only if they seek me wisdom is not going to do anything just to get a crowd right she'd rather have two people that sincerely want her desire her than to have a hundred people who have no desire just pretending so this this foolish woman is not stupid the doc said this already she's not a stupid person this is not a stupid person this is not stupidity but she is incapable of spiritual discernment and the reason she's incapable is not that she was born that way but she chose to be that way she rejected wisdom who was standing at the city gate remember this woman is at the city gate also

Foolishness is there and wisdom is there. This woman, foolishness, rejected the woman of wisdom. And because she rejected wisdom, she is now incapable of spiritual discernment. She doesn't know anymore what's right and wrong. doesn't know anymore what's truth and a lie yes so look at the progression simplicity leads the loudness loudness leads to blindness blindness leads to destruction and this pattern is presented throughout the book of proverbs it's a dissent into destruction She knows nothing, and yet she still speaks.

What is more dangerous than a person who knows nothing and won't keep their mouth shut? Oh, my goodness, yes. You don't believe me, go to Washington, D.C. There's buildings full of these people. They're on television every day. they know nothing and yet they won't shut up why they get a crowd don't they there's a zealousness for foolishness

now verse 14 i said i was going to get this done we only got the first one verse um but that was good wasn't it We covered a lot of ground in that one verse. Did you know that that much information, wisdom was in that one verse? Verse 14, for she sitteth at the door of her house on a seat in the high places of the city. Modern English is basically the same. She sits at the door of her house on a seat in the high places of the city. Let's start with the first part, for she sitteth at the door of her house.

Sitting denotes a settled posture. She is not passing through. She has taken her seat. She is deliberately stationed with intention and confidence in her ability to seduce people. Yes. Remember, wisdom is standing at the gate. Foolishness is sitting at the gate. This is at the door of her house.

So at the door of her house, this is mimicking. wisdom in verse three who sends out her maidens from her house right so now folly is masquerading as wisdom there you got it the door of her house symbolizes the threshold between decision and action she places herself right where people must pass through where choices are made when you go through a door you have chosen to leave one room and enter another room or to leave the outside and go inside or leave the inside and go outside you've made a decision you pass through a door a door is a portal so this portal represents decision and action it's a strategic positioning she knows where simpletons will pass by she knows the places where she can influence them and deceive them by by sitting at the door she advertises her availability.

She's at the door. She's open to everybody. Again, the sitting posture, it denotes confidence, readiness, permanence. She is entrenched in error, but she's bold in her appeal to spread it. She creates an illusion of normalcy, a house, a door. But the house is not built with seven pillars. It's built on sand. She doesn't need to chase victims.

She lures them by being visible, accessible, enticing. The door is symbolic of invitation and entrance. For her, it's an entrance into deception. But I think most of you know Proverbs 31. virtuous woman she watches over her house but this woman watches over the people outside that's really important the virtuous woman watches over her household the foolish woman sits at the door and watches over the people outside she has a posture of sitting spiritual laziness she's not laboring to acquire righteousness you have to

work at this to be knowledgeable in the ways of the lord you have to work at it again i commend the people that come to the morning man of five days a week and sit here for an hour god bless you you're working at this you're not just sitting back saying well the Lord wants me to be wise, he'll drop it on me. Doesn't work that way. But this woman's sitting because she's spiritually lazy. She has a public ministry of foolishness. She broadcast her foolishness into the streets.

An interesting doc, broadcasting been around since the beginning of man yes just the technology has changed but it's always been around today we have television radio the internet satellites all of them broadcasting foolishness the way you did it back then was to stand and shout to get a crowd She's on a seat in the high places of the city. We've talked about high places. It represents elevated physical or symbolic locations. The high places.

Physically, it can be hilltops. It can be monuments. monuments, towers, tall buildings, buildings that have high steps, like a Supreme Court building, college. These are high places, okay. But spiritually, they can represent pagan worship, idolatry. Often the pagans would set up their ideas. idols on high places hills. If you read the Old Testament, you'll see God dimming the high places where idols were worshipped. So her seat is in public, not it's not private, it's in public view.

foolishness with high visibility and it's seeking approval by society it desires popularity again she's mimicking wisdom wisdom cried out in the high places foolishness sits in the high places see she's stationary she's resting because she feels at home there wisdom's trying to get people away from these places evil often positions itself to appear to be prestigious especially in politics you're going to be very careful who you're listening to um sitting seat a seat means it represents a place of teaching a place of teaching a place of ruling a place of judging um again it's how High places can include academia, colleges, university, schools, government, culture, entertainment, courts, even corrupt religious systems.

They're high places. But isn't this, here's the irony of it, the people who meet her on these high places to hear her foolishness. are led on a path of moral descent into hell and death. She meets them on the high places and leads them to the low places. before we close up here um you know also sitting she's hiding her aggressiveness she doesn't need to move people will come to her yeah she is aggressive but she she conceals it okay she's she's enthroned in culture she's not wandering around the world gives her a platform.

If you're foolish, if you want to lead people away from God, the world will give you a platform. It sure will. If you desire to lead them to Christ, the world will fight you to keep you from being heard. Verse 15, to call passengers who go right on their ways world english bible to call to those who pass by who go straight on their ways to call those who pass by this woman this foolish woman

doesn't merely wait she's seated she's in a passive position of being seated. She's secure. She's confident in herself. She's taken her seat, but she calls out. She mimics wisdom. Wisdom stands at the city gate in the high places, but this woman has a seat. But she calls out like wisdom. She imitates truth in broad daylight. She is intentional. She's persuasive. There's no neutral tone. This is deliberate seduction designed to capture attention. Her words are directed at those who are unaware of her motives. people who are just merely passing by, minding their own business, but suddenly they're now at risk of being diverted. She's caught their attention. These are people whose minds are not fixed on Jehovah. Right. If your mind is not fixed on Christ 24-7, you are at risk of being

diverted. passing by there's that the people the people passing by there's transients there's movement it speaks of people who are on a journey they're going from one place to another place she targets those who are not rooted in truth she targets those who don't know where they're going she's evangelist she's spreading her gospel but it's not good news she's not randomly speaking but she is calculating she's deliberately persistently seated in the high places deliberately spreading her deception her her voice is her voice is

heard in entertainment. It's heard in politics. It's heard in government. It's heard in colleges and universities and high schools. It's heard in books and music. It's heard wherever humans go to acquire information, entertainment, knowledge. Whatever form is she's there. You can open a book and her mouth will come calling out. You can turn on a television show, and her mouth is there. She's everywhere. She's in the high places of society. That's why you have to guard your mind, guard your heart.

Not to listen to this stuff. I've had to just completely just cut off. The whole news world because of the deception. Even the so-called conservative news networks are deceiving. Yes. They're deceivers. And yet, I'll tell you, millions of Christians sit there in front of these TV sets watching these so-called conservative news channels and they're being indoctrinated, programmed, brain

washed because they're just sitting there in a passive state sucking it in and not using any discernment to say wait a minute what that person just said is contrary to the word of god her deception always comes as an offer of compromise It's not outright appeal, hey, defy God. It's always a subtle invitation that leads to defiance. Just the people who go straight on their ways. She's not targeting the wicket. She's targeting those who are attempting.

to go straight on their ways right the wicked are already her customers yeah they've already been converted she's looking for converts uh this word these two words in hebrew for straightway i think the hebrew is uh yeshar direct derrick it means the path of righteousness moral This woman is after those who are going straight on their ways. They're actually fairly good people who are trying to walk the right way. That's who she's going after. She's targeting them. She's deliberately seeking to intercept them on the road.

These are not people who are just wandering around aimlessly. these are people who are going straight on their ways and she's trying to lure them off this path steady it implies that there's a that they are walking in a steady consistent walk they're not in rebellion they're not I'm talking about the people that she's she's seducing.

Yet these same people are not immune from seduction. In fact, they are her prize. She hangs their scalp on her wall. I got another one, another man, another woman who thought that they were on the right path. And I got them. And now I've nailed their scalp to the wall. it tells us look nobody nobody let me say that word again nobody nobody nobody means everybody okay nobody is immune to temptation even those who are on the right path we can we can make ourselves

vulnerable to temptation even good people that should be a a wake-up call should be a sobering message to every one of us that the seducer is always looking for the people who are on the right path it's it's a double win for Satan he gets a A convert, but he's depopulated God's population. See, if they're just out there wandering around, okay, there are for grabs. But to snag somebody who's trying to walk the right path, that's a double win for Satan. Right. So this foolish woman prays.

know, like a predator, a lion on, I mean, listen to this, on the weary traveler. Be very, very alert. Listen to what I'm saying. When you are spiritually weary, when you are spiritually tired, when you are lonely. when you are craving relief from your problems you are a target you are a target take heed to what i said and take action to get help in righteousness does not eliminate susceptibility to sin right even the most faithful man and woman can fall when caught off guard be aware of that okay be aware of it hear of of um christian leaders um falling into sin i i don't condemn i my heart breaks i feel so sorry for him because uh religious people will just tear them up they have no idea they have no idea

the pressure the temptation the demonic attack that was on that person they have no idea so be compassionate unless you are the next one to fall so many of us we begin our travels in righteousness and yet somewhere along life's path we're deceived to take a detour And that detour was set up by Satan. And at first, it doesn't look like a wrong path. But give Satan time. He has his net. He's got his trap set up to ensnare you at some point.

So this is not, I'm not saying these things to instill fear, but vigilance. soberness to be aware that the best the best can fall we're over our time doc i'll pick it up tomorrow verse 16 all right well we appreciate you being here with us as we start a brand new week here on morning manna and you can help us out by sharing this content not only from faith and values here but also on various other platforms where we post Morning Manna on a regular basis.

No, other than let's pray for President Trump today, is they're having a meeting in the White House about the Ukraine war. There are forces in the world that do not want that war to end. That's true. And they want to sabotage his efforts.

And I saw it and heard it over the weekend. And pray for peace. All right. Let's bind the devils of war that Satan wants a lot of people to die. Okay. And I pray for President Trump today that he has wisdom to navigate around the traps and the deception and the sabotage and bring an end to this war. Folks, it's not the end of World War III. It's just the end of a battle.

It's just an end of a battle in World War III. That's all we're talking about here today. That's it for me. I'll be back here tomorrow. Morning man. All right. God bless you. That's the Tuesday edition, folks.

We'll see you then. God bless you.
