Psalms 34:8-9
8 Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
9 Fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.
Lamentations 3:25-26
25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him;
26 it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.
Romans 12:11
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
Thoughts on This Verse....
Jesus made it clear that God wants us to be passionate about our Christian life. "I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm — neither hot nor cold — I am about to spit you out of my mouth." (Rev. 3:15-16) Let's live passionately for the Lord!
Proverbs 11:22
Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.
Thoughts on This Verse....
To take what is physically beautiful and then profane it with sin is to waste a great gift to bless someone who doesn't even have a clue why God gave it to her or him. No matter what gifts we have been given, whether physical beauty, athletic talent,
Divine Wisdom
* How often do we attempt work for God to the limit of our incompetency, rather than the limit of God's omnipotence? … J. Hudson Taylor
* This is how idolatry grows in our hearts. We want things and we aren’t sure God will give them to us, so we put our trust in other gods. This is THE problem of the human heart—misplaced trust. We value, love, and trust something in creation more than the Creator, and since there is nothing in creation that is intended to bear the weight of our trust, we are bound to live in fear. All other loves must be subordinate to your love for Christ. Edward T. Welch
