Prov 16:7 When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. Prov 18:15 An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, & the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. Prov 19:8 Whoever gets sense loves his own soul; he who keeps understanding will discover good. Psalm 90:12 So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. Col 4:5 Walk in wisdom …., making the best use of the time. James 3:13 Who is wise & understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. Prov 14:16 One who is wise is cautious & turns away from evil, but a fool is reckless & careless. Prov 3:13Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, & the one who gets understanding. Prov 13:20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. Prov 16:20 Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good, & blessed is he who trusts in the LORD. — Wisdom is a commodity that seems lacking! God tells us how important wisdom is & that those who turn their backs will find harm! May we all learn to use our heads & walk in ways that we know will please God! Wisdom is something that we find, & we do this by searching for understanding what is good & pleasing to our God! Love Mel
An Everlasting Name
Rev 2:17 (RSV) He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, & I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.’ Isaiah 62:2 The nations shall see your righteousness, & all the kings your glory, & you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will give. Isaiah 56:5 I will give in my house & within my walls a monument & a name better than sons & daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off. — God promises an everlasting name that will not be cut off! Our relationship with our God is everlasting providing hope to all who seek after Him! A person’s very identity is rolled up into his or her name. So what is in a name given by God? “Eternal Life & the promises of God all rolled up in a NAME!” Maybe it is God’s way of saying “You are mine & you are loved!” Praise Him! Love Mel
