Proverbs 16:20 “Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.” All of us who have a continual mindset of learning will enjoy thoughtful discussions with others who also enjoy learning. When that discussion includes thoughts of our Heavenly Father and gaining additional insight into our relationship with Him, the discussion is not only very enjoyable but it also results in a stronger faith and a deeper relationship with our wonderful God. Have a great weekend.

Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” No one can truly help others if they place themselves above others. A–I’m better than you because I have more education, more money, more fame, more of anything leads to a demeaning attitude and will eventually lead to a lonely, unfulfilled and like a pencil which never gets sharpened, a pointless life. Fulfillment always comes from an attitude of following the counsel of our Teacher-be a servant-leader.

Proverbs 16:16 “How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver.” Each of us has a choice–are we going to live our lives with our Heavenly Father as the center or with me as the center? From the outside the choice is not necessarily evident because in America blessings abound on the just and the unjust. However, looking from the inside out, a wealth of peace and contentedness dominates the being of a child of God. God’s wisdom and knowledge are always at the forefront of God’s children’s desires.
