My Prayer for you today is to pray and take time to read today's verses. So many just jumped off the page and demanded at least a paragraph. I have included some examples below.
Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed.
In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.
Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.
Better a dry crust with peace and quiet than a house full of feasting with strife.
He who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.
A man of knowledge uses words with restraint, and a man of understanding is even-tempered.
The words of a gossip are like choice morsels, they go down to a man's inmost parts.
A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
From Proverbs 16-18 NIV
My comment today is on our last verse of the day, Proverbs 18:24: "A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."
This verse is very reassuring to a Christian: for it points out that no matter what happens to us in life; we have a friend, Jesus Christ; who will stick to us closer than a brother.
What proverb particularly caught your attention today?
How does that proverb illuminate a point in your life?
What action(s) will you take in view of that proverb and your life? Write those actions down on a sheet of paper.
Pray for the Spirit to guide you through changes in your life.
In Christ,
David P
