Listen and be blessed

Proverbs 1:8 “Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.” Parents, Grandparents, children and grandchildren have a huge and extremely important responsibility.  Teach and learn.  The Wise teach wisdom and the Wise learn wisdom.  God is giving all of us golden instruction—that is, no matter your age in life, you and I have an important job which effects generations.  Recognize your position and fulfill it.

wisdom–yes or no

Proverbs 1:7 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.” To continually learn from and about our God is an exciting honor.  What a joy it is to study His Word and gain both knowledge and wisdom.  I cannot imagine how desperate we would all be without His Word.  Cherish the privilege and joy of being able to read, learn, strengthen your faith and develop a closer relationship with Him who’s love for you passes all understanding.  Have a great weekend.

Be wise

Proverbs 1:5 “let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance—” God is setting you and me up for instruction.  We will learn truths that when applied will make our lives full of wisdom and solid character.  We look forward to studying the Proverbs.

what an introduction!

Proverbs 1:1-4 “The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight; for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life, doing what is right and just and fair; for giving prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young— ” Since God’s words contain all the above–we have to study Proverbs.

Emotional and stable words

Ephesians 6:23-24 “Peace to the brothers, and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.” All Christians are blessed having the peace and the love of our Almighty God.  Nothing has more value.  I had a meeting with 8 former addicts last night teaching them this very thought.  What a difference knowing the security and peace which only comes with having a faith relationship enjoyed when God carries, walks along side or simply holding hands makes.  You are extremely blessed.
