A WOMAN IN LONDON STOPPED AT A SHOP AND PAID CASH FOR 10,656 Mars bars.
No one bothered to ask why she bought so many, but one person said with great understatement, “Perhaps she had a sweet tooth.”
The writer of Psalm 119 had a sweet tooth for the Word of God. He said that it was, “sweeter than honey to my mouth.”
