Hello again sisters!
The glory be to God for all good things! I hope most of all that you are strong in the faith sisters.
I've had another really busy day. But it's good to have things to keep occupied in too although we can only do what we can and don't want to get overwhelmed if it seems like too much at once! And it's also good to have some quieter moments to study His Word or listen to it or just ponder life and the things of the Lord and examine all we're doing.
I was listening to Proverbs in a break I had and so share a few verses.
Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife.Proverbs 17:1
With the Lord and His ways less is better! We may need to even be alone in our faith life but that is better to have the Lord and His peace than to be with many people who may lead us astray.
Better is little...
Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith. Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.Proverbs 15:16-17
Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.Proverbs 16:8
And we sure know the narrow road has few on compared to the broad road. And also goes along with what Jesus said about many being called and few chosen and also how God uses the weak and despised and the lowly and meek and the poor and such like. Man thinks bigger is better and the more people with you means it's right but we know it isn't the case. God's ways are not man's either. Just pondering on it all.
He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.Proverbs 17:9
Yeah godly love doesn't go repeating someone's sins or failings especially if they repented of them in sorrow.
And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.1 Peter 4:8
Only someone who is up to no good would love to tell others failings. There is a lot in Proverbs about fools and mischief too. We don't want to be like that!
He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.Proverbs 11:27
It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.Proverbs 10:23
Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.Proverbs 6:14
God's word warns us of the ways that are not good. There are often comparisons with them compared side by side...the good and the evil. Let us walk in His good ways!
Going to share some beautiful flowers I saw today. Praise God for them all! And sharing some scriptures too!
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.Psalm 29:2
Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.Psalm 96:6
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.Isaiah 61:3
One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.Psalm 27:4
And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.Psalm 90:17
In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.Isaiah 4:2
So amazing! Glory to God!
Well that's all for now sisters! We each keep doing what we can in each day and I guess it keeps us humble knowing only God is able to do everything at once! He is all powerful and nothing is impossible with Him! Let us serve this great God with humble thankful hearts!
Lord willing I will be back here tomorrow. Keep striving on in the truth my sisters! Hold fast and keep watch!
And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.Mark 13:37
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
