Greetings sisters!
Hope you're all doing well on this day we will never get again! My day was busy but if we're striving on in the Lord it's a good day no matter what! We always have various little trials or challenges to deal with don't we! Or big ones but it's our reasonable service and we need to handle them all with patience and peace still don't we.
Cute baby lizard in the garden...
The Creator made so very many different unique creatures didn't He! It's hard to fathom them all and we can't even know everything of course!
Saw this cute new baby duck sitting next to chicken 'mum'...God made the birds to sit patiently for several weeks to hatch their eggs. I think I shared about that one time before here how not only do we humans have to work hard the animals do too like when watching the parent birds always feeding their hungry babies and searching hard to find them food. We know the Word often uses nature to teach us lessons too.
I was washing evening dishes and wondering what to post to edify my sisters today and I thought of this scripture about where it says a little folly in the person that is considered wise is not a good thing...
Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savour: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour.
Ecclesiastes 10:1
We all have a responsibility as bearers of Christ's name to not bring reproach on His name. And also people sure are watching us (for various reasons and just because they see what we do even if they aren't specifically watching us for any particular reason). I think of them watching Jesus trying to entangle Him in His talk. So I share these scriptures for interest and edifying.
Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
Matthew 22:15
And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse him.
Mark 3:2
And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.
Luke 20:20
Of course being perfect they wouldn't have had anything to find with Jesus even though they tried but with us we also need to make sure all we do is blameless...for His glory. And if not just like that verse in Proverbs it's not a good thing when we may fail. But we keep being diligent and striving our best and God knows our hearts doesn't He sisters.
Find Hebrews 12 reading here to be edified...
His Word is so good and strengthening.
Thank you sister for this...
Goes along with this and also what I was sharing above...
Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
Philippians 2:14-15
What we do does matter amen sisters. God is watching and knows everything we do but also the world and other saints are watching also! Let us be good examples and also keeping humble knowing that we are capable of failing even though we sure don't want to. I greatly appreciate my sisters who are fervent for the Lord and zealous to not bring reproach upon His holy name and willing to be changed to be more like Him!
Hold fast sisters and keep striving on faithfully...no matter what!
