Ken-
I just enjoyed a few peaceful, refreshing moments listening to Proverbs 2: If You Accept.
Thank you! Keep up the good work.

I love that the Contentious Wife is a dissonant treble note! May I never be that note! Very nice work here. Some of these beg to be set to the lyrics they were inspired by. Others are lovely expressions without needing words at all. Congrats on this work!
