Happy February 4th! Here’s another Bible verse that is dear to my heart: For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief. ~ Proverbs 24:16 As a teenager, I couldn’t seem to stay out of trouble. I was always doing something wrong. My brother was a …
I’m continuing my countdown to Valentine’s Day with my favorite Bible verses. He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears. ~ Proverbs 26:17 I will never forget this verse. It was quoted to me by my church bus driver when I …
I’m counting down to Valentine’s Day with verses I love from God’s precious Word. Today, I’m sharing Proverbs 11:22 – As a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion. I suppose this is an odd verse to love. But, as I grew into pre-adolescence, I was …
I was thinking about February being the month of love, and decided to do a little countdown to Valentine’s Day with a different verse from the Bible that has a special meaning for me. Of course, I love all of God’s Word – even the parts that step on my toes – but some verses …
In my Bible reading this week, I came across a verse that jumped out at me. It’s funny how you can read the Bible often and only be looking at the words, not thinking about them. Well, that happens to me anyway. Before I know it, I’ve gotten halfway or three-fourths through a chapter and …
I struggle with my words. I could write pages on that struggle (ironic?), but nothing talks about words better than God’s Word. The tongue is a little thing, and yet it seems so very big. 1 . Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a …
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) ~ Ephesians 2:4-5 I was just trying to make a quick trip to Hobby Lobby. It’s only a few miles from my …
I’m in the middle of seven books. I know. That’s ridiculous. I’m sure you’re thinking that I’m terribly forgetful or suffering from ADD. It’s probably more of a combination of the two. If a book is hard, then I go slowly through it, so it causes me to pause a lot and I end up …
“Hindsight is 20/20.” My dad would say this after I informed him of the results of what I had just learned was a poor decision. How frustrating to see so clearly something you would have liked to have seen a day, a week or even an hour before! Once you make a call on something, …
Today, while I was exercising, I thought about writing this blog post. Because when you’re exercising, it helps a great deal to use your imagination. You forget about your lack of oxygen, your aching muscles and your tired feet when you’re doing something completely different in your mind. I thought about Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation …
