S – Stone is heavy and sand a burden,but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.

      Proverbs 27:3 CSB

O – Commentary:

The burden of being provoked by a fool is a heavy one indeed. In fact it is heavier than a large stone and more burdensome than sand. So a wise person should not react to a fool even when the fool’s actions and words are irritating.

The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

A—When we engage in foolish behavior or conversation, we are adding “weight” to our lives. Healthy boundaries keep us free from this burden and available for the necessary things.  

R – Heavenly Father, we honor your name today.  Give us discernment to identify unnecessary things.  Give us the courage to establish healthy boundaries to protect the things that are vital to our growth.
