Journey through the bible

Thank God for good friends!

Weigh your words. Hold your tongue. Think before you speak. That simple exercise is going to keep you from a lot of sin and regret.

In this section of Proverbs, He slams the hammer down with a series of admonitions. I see four important warnings in today’s passage.

Wholehearted trust is not easy, but it is right. It honors God and it always produces the best for me.

“He is the Maker of heaven, and earth, the sea and everything in them.” He “remains faithful forever.” Blessed is the one whose confidence is in Him.

How do you experience the mighty acts of God so that you can pass them on with passion?

God has given us meaning and purpose to carry out. He has ordained all our days. We have been fearfully and wonderfully made. That is a reason for great praise.

It is a part of God’s love and acceptance that should make us want to worship and honor Him with our lives. Forgiveness allows us to serve God with the reverence He alone deserves.

Unless we are serious and intentional about building our family according to the Lord’s instruction, we will get stuck with a big house filled with small, self-absorbed, and self-saturated people.
