What God is revealing to me today is that we need to be in support of one another. When a friend is down & out take care of him, don't make light of someones situation, take time to assess what is going…

Day 24

there is a lot of warning and talk of evil, seems God is really trying to prepare us for that. He even predicts people being led to their death and how we should react. I often think if I do good, then…

Day 17

It feels like God wants me to choose words carefully, raise me children to be thoughtful and respectful. I also need to check my motive for things, really think about my action before to proceed. Be joyful…

Day 16

Lately these readings seem to speak to trult ALLOWING God to work. having the patience, wisdom and restraint to let God work and not intercede. That is hard when you're a single woman. so many times,…

Day 15

I like how God watches over everything, good & evil. Our words need to be chosen carefully, whether it be to others or in prayer. God wants true spoken words. I think about how often I give lip service,…

there are so many rules in Proverbs, mostly any question of "how to" is in here. In today's reading I think discipline stuck out with me again... it's something I'm trying to get much better at with my…

day 12

Some of the key things that I noted were: don't just speak the 1st things that come to mind, but speak with thoughtful intent, kindness, truth & praise. You can't be lazy, God expects hard work & that…

Proverbs 8:1 (NIV)

day 7

I'm thinking its pretty important that God devotes so much time to temptations of the flesh. since one of my languages is physical touch, it is a diffucult aspect to be in a relationship and not be physical,…
