Proverbs





Ten Proverbs

He who walks with wise men will be wise. But the companion of fools will be destroyed – Proverbs 13:20 NKJV

Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends – Proverbs 17:9 NLT

He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless – Proverbs 2:7 NIV

If you listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise – Proverbs 15:31

Whoever is patient has great understating, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly – Proverbs 14:29 NIV

Wealth from get-rich-schemes quickly disappears; wealth from hard work grows over time – Proverbs 13:11 NLT

The one who hates good counsel will reap failure and ruin, but the one who reveres God’s instruction will be rewarded – Proverbs 13:13 The Voice

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart – Proverbs 3:3 NIV

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger – Proverbs 15:1 NIV


Knowledge is wisdom that comes from acquiring the truth.

Insight is wisdom that comes from living out the truth we acquire.

Discernment is wisdom that comes from the Holy Spirit’s reminders of that knowledge and insight.

Be blessed and be a blessing!

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to teach.  Do you have a favorite Bible Story or family tradition? A G

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
