Just A Few Of My Thoughts …

“My child, never drift off course from these two goals for your life: to walk in wisdom and to discover discernment. Don’t ever forget how they empower you. For they strengthened you inside and out and inspire you to do what’s right, you will be energized and refreshed by the healing they bring. They give you living hope to guide you, and not one of life’s test will cause you to stumble. You will sleep like a baby, safe and sound-your rest will be sweet and secure. You will not be subject to terror, for it will not terrify you. Nor will the disrespectful be able to push you aside, because God is your confidence in times of crisis, keeping your heart at rest in every situation.” Proverbs 3:21-26 TPT

When life seems to be falling apart in the middle of all we are attempting to do, it can be a little overwhelming. When appliances fail, the car breaks down, or the job becomes more than anticipated, we can easily find ourselves feeling stressed. These are the things that can cause us to drift off course, the things that attempt to bring us down, to keep us from having God’s best for us. In this passage, we see the power of walking in wisdom with the discretion or the ability to make the correct choices. Wisdom and discernment are gifts from God, to provide us with his strength, direction, and the knowledge of knowing that through him, we find our peace. Our instructions are found within the pages of His Word, instilling withn us a living hope as security. Imagine, being in the midst of a terrifying situation, with God holding your heart, providing your peace, knowing it can be yours, all for the asking!

Heavenly Father, help us to remember, your desire for us is to walk in wisdom, with the ability to discern your truths. Help us to seek your Word for our direction.

In Christ Love
