Proverbs 4:1-27 is coming in with some straight truth: your heart is the wellspring of your life. Everything you think, say, and do is shaped by what’s happening in your heart. God’s loving voice is calling you to pay attention and guard this precious space like the treasure it is.
This isn’t about building walls; it’s about setting boundaries rooted in wisdom. God’s love isn’t just about keeping bad things out—it’s about filling your heart with good things, like His truth

Proverbs 7:1-27 is God’s loving reminder to treasure His wisdom and cling to His truth. His voice is calling you to stay close, to let His commands shape your choices and protect your heart. He’s not asking for perfection; He’s asking for connection. His love meets you where you are and guides you where you need to go.
God’s commands aren’t burdens—they’re blessings. They’re guardrails to keep you safe from the things that seek to harm you. And through Jesus, we see how Go

Proverbs 9:1-18 paints a vivid picture of two invitations: one from Wisdom and one from Folly. Wisdom’s invitation is like a feast—a table set with everything you need to thrive. Folly’s invitation, on the other hand, might look tempting, but it leads to emptiness and regret. God’s loving voice calls you to choose the feast of wisdom, to step into His truth and live a life filled with meaning and purpose.
True wisdom starts with knowing God. It’s not just about facts or sm

Proverbs 10:1-32 is packed with contrasts between wisdom and foolishness, righteousness and wickedness, truth and lies. It’s like a guidebook for navigating life with integrity and purpose. God’s voice of love shines through, reminding us that choosing righteousness leads to security and peace. Walking in integrity isn’t just about avoiding wrong—it’s about actively choosing what’s right, even when it’s hard.
God’s love gives us the strength to live with integrity. Throug

Depend on the Lord
An ancient Hebrew fable goes like this: Once there was a small leaf attached to the upper limb of a tall tree. The leaf was very content with its good life until it saw the birds flying above the forest. The leaf, then, yearned to be "free like the birds," free to fly and experience many different things. The leaf struggled and struggled to be free and finally it broke loose and was free! It could now flit about as it pleased! It finally got its way! How

Constantly renewing your mind.

Proverbs 22:6 l “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
As an adult we find more and more that we return to the ways of our upbringing. Yes, many of us left the nest and tried life on our own for a time but in the end we realized that our parents raised us to have morals and taught us to guide our way through life according to God’s word. Thankfully many of us remembered being taught right and returned to what we were tau

Just Because You Can Doesn’t Mean That You Should!
In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Paul says we are not our own. We were bought at a price. Having received our bodies as a gift from God, we are to use them to honor God. Problems arise when we see our decisions as separate from our bodies or too small to impact our life. If we want to honor God with our bodies, we have to first honor Him with our decisions. Not thinking things through is how just one wrong decision can lead us dow

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 “Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God with your body.“ This verse emphasizes that as Christians, our bodies are not our own to do with as we please, but belong to God and should be used to honor Him because we were "bought with a price" through Jesus' sacrifice. The theological term is “redeemed.” Jesus bought us or re

2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” What a beautiful truth to carry into this new year 2025. In Christ, every day is an opportunity for renewal. The challenges, successes, and lessons of the past year have shaped us and our lives, but His mercies are new every morning, offering us grace to continue the work He’s entrusted to us. As we lead our lives into this new year,

The associations we have, the company we keep, the things we watch and the things we listen to can and will corrupt the good morals we are building and practicing in our life. If we think it won't we are very wrong. Proverbs 13;20. We must guard our eyes in what we view. Psalm 101:3. Guard our ears in what we listen to. 2 Timothy 4:3. Guard our tongue in what we speak and the sort of conversations we involve ourself in. Proverbs 21:23; Matthew 12:36; Ephesians 4:29. We m

Another perspective of a familiar Psalm. We typically associate Psalms 23:1-6 with the loss of a loved one. It is a common verse printed on the memorials that are distributed at funerals. However, let’s take a closer view and we will see there is so much more to take from this beautiful psalm of David. This Psalm is an expression of complete trust in God's total care, which is at the heart of its central message. God pursues us with His blessings. God is not an uninterest

Facing Fear and Defeating Worry.
"it is the Unknown that feeds our worry."
This is actually a form of fear that many of us have. We fear so many things in our lives. Fear is a common problem. Some of our fears are legitimate but some of them may be groundless. Either way they can mean anguish for the person living in fear. We sometimes worry about things that aren't real. We imagine that illness is going to wreck havoc with our bodies, or even kill us. We read about an ill

Do you feel broken? Thinking no one could ever benefit from hearing your story. Let us discuss about a woman that most likely could have related to how you’re feeling right now.
Consider this scenario for a moment:
She thought no one would be present at the well right now, so she could go and be there alone. She had heard others whispering behind her back and had seen how some would glare at her. Today was not a day she felt like subjecting herself to this.
As she walked,

Chapter 5 is our final study in the letter of James.

What a victory it is when we’re tempted and we do not respond in the flesh. Do you feel miserable when you give into the flesh? When we respond according to the spirit it feels so good. It is important that our faith is tested because we so easily will deceive ourselves. Storing up riches here on earth will not save us in the end and we won’t be taking any of it with us wherever we go
