Good morning ☀️🌞
I struggled today at finding the “right” translation of the verse below. I resorted to the King James Version. The scriptures make the point that we all stumble at times, but God does not cast us away. He continues to love us and is always waiting with open arms. That, my friends, is good news for us sinners.
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the Lord upholdeth him with His hand.” Psalm 37: 23-24 (KJV).

Here’s how we ought to behave as Believers.
“Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.
But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”
Colossians 3: 12-16 (NIV).

In a world gone mad, where evil is called “good,” darkness is praised as “light,” and bitter is sold as sweet — God’s Word and warnings ring louder than ever:

Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!”
Isaiah 5:20-21 (KJV).
Our leaders are fighting wars on multiple fronts at once. Israel is under siege. America is stretched thin. Ukraine is mired in what seems to be a never-ending war.
China, Russia, and Europe are opportunistic players in this global crisis.
Favor from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is our only hope.
We don’t need another congressional hearing or another speech about red lines.
We need God’s wisdom!
Let’s stop scrolling. Bow our heads and pray as the Lord leads.
Lord Jesus, grant our leaders supernatural wisdom and discernment.
Expose every lie and deception.
Protect the ...
Do any young women you know aspire to become a Proverbs 31 wife?
“A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.”
Proverbs 31:10-12 (NIV)
Marriage is a two-way street. I’ve never had a successful one myself, but I’ve known many couples who have. Those who pray together, worship together, and work together toward common goals have a far greater chance of building something that endures.
Young ladies, the Proverbs 31 standard isn’t outdated — it’s countercultural and powerful.
