Hey There!
Good afternoon girlies! I am so excited for our time together tomorrow night and I look forward to seeing all of you there! Its Beth Moore's turn to speak and the video is 35 minutes long. I know we will all be captivated by her words!
So many of you have been trying to help me figure out the name of THE SONG that brought me to tears this past weekend at service. Phil Vega sang..... are you ready for it..... "Arms Wide Open" by Hillsong United. It was incredible and the amount of people who poured forward to be saved was incredible. Needless to say we were way off on our google searches.... I am listening to it now with goose bumps and a lump in my throat! I love how worship songs can move us in this way!
Quick note... my kids heard the music blaring and have come in to dance and have bible study! I love this moment.... can I freeze it??
My whole life is yours....Have your way....Have your way! Lord we cry out to you today with this petition!
Today we look at Proverbs 26.... let's read the scriptures!
Proverbs 26
1 Like snow in summer or rain in harvest,
honor is not fitting for a fool.
2 Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,
an undeserved curse does not come to rest.
3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
and a rod for the backs of fools!
4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
or you yourself will be just like him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
or he will be wise in his own eyes.
6 Sending a message by the hands of a fool
is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison.
7 Like the useless legs of one who is lame
is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
8 Like tying a stone in a sling
is the giving of honor to a fool.
9 Like a thornbush in a drunkard’s hand
is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
10 Like an archer who wounds at random
is one who hires a fool or any passer-by.
11 As a dog returns to its vomit,
so fools repeat their folly.
12 Do you see a person wise in their own eyes?
There is more hope for a fool than for them.
13 A sluggard says, “There’s a lion in the road,
a fierce lion roaming the streets!”
14 As a door turns on its hinges,
so a sluggard turns on his bed.
15 A sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
16 A sluggard is wiser in his own eyes
than seven people who answer discreetly.
17 Like one who grabs a stray dog by the ears
is someone who rushes into a quarrel not their own.
18 Like a maniac shooting
flaming arrows of death
19 is one who deceives their neighbor
and says, “I was only joking!”
20 Without wood a fire goes out;
without a gossip a quarrel dies down.
21 As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire,
so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.
22 The words of a gossip are like choice morsels;
they go down to the inmost parts.
23 Like a coating of silver dross on earthenware
are fervent[a] lips with an evil heart.
24 Enemies disguise themselves with their lips,
but in their hearts they harbor deceit.
25 Though their speech is charming, do not believe them,
for seven abominations fill their hearts.
26 Their malice may be concealed by deception,
but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
27 Whoever digs a pit will fall into it;
if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them.
28 A lying tongue hates those it hurts,
and a flattering mouth works ruin.
My thoughts and take-aways!
I know we are reading through Proverbs and usually my take-aways are from the scripture but today I want to do something a little different. I know that worship is a sweet aroma to the Lord and I want to you to have the opportunity to stand in silence and pour out to God your desires. Stand with your arms opened wide, invite Him in, and let him know your are his and he is yours! Is there a worship song that you love or one that stirs your soul? Please share your story with us.... Leave a comment!
Love to all!
