Proverbs 13:20 New Living Translation (NLT)
Walk with the wise and become wise;
associate with fools and get in trouble.
REAL PEOPLE ~
Walk with the wise and become wise
I often say that we are like who we hand around. A mirror can relate our image, but a mirror to the soul can reflect many people. Each person who inputs into our lives is either a positive influence or negative. I remember having someone say I was just like someone else. I said that I wasn't like that person we are quite opposite in areas. Then the person said, well you are alike because you both are happy and care about others. That was a true statement. I guess I was more alike that I realized. It is compliment to be wise like someone you look up too. Our example goes further than we might know.
Colossians 3:12-14 New Living Translation (NLT)
Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.13 Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony.
OUR CHOICE ~
Live in the joy of the Lord
YOUR VOICE ~
Don't let your voice be silent
YOUR LIFE ~
We only have one life to live. Make it the best day ever. I have found even in the hardest of times, something good can come from it. I have seen the power of God move and I have seen miracles happen. In life, I don't always hear about miracles happening as much. But God is still the miracle worker and they do happen. We must live by faith and trust just knowing that his amazing power is real. Calling upon the name of Jesus is a must for me. How about you? Are you still reaching out and knowing that the power of prayer is real? I hope so, because God wants us to come to him by faith. Fatih is what we can not see but hold onto. Trust is knowing God is able. Sometimes it's hard to trust someone. Some people can not be trusted and we must let go of them. Others, we can trust and we know that.
It is time to praise God in all things. It is through the hard things that I've seen his power. It is trusting and keeping the faith that I have moved forward. My voice has become stronger over the years and I've learned something wrong. I feel like I walk stronger than ever now. I know the truth and I do my best to live that everyday of life. I've made mistakes and ask forgiveness. I'm no different anyone else. We come together by God's grace and mercy. Let us spur ourselves on by God's word and walk in wisdom that he shares. God is truly faithful
My prayers continue for you, your family and friends.
