Sunday, September 30th - Proverbs 14:16; 15:16

Good Morning!

"As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God.  My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.  Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.  Our God is a God who saves."  Psalm 42:1,2a; 68:19,20a
As we go and corporately worship our Awesome God today, seek His face, praise His name, thirst for Him, and He will answer our prayers and delight in us.  It's SONday!

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Proverbs 15:16 ~ You'll never have enough money, but you can tap into something that maximizes the money you have.  Fearing the Lord leads to better results
LMRMinistries: Want to know more about what it means to Fear the Lord?  Here's a deeper look:  www.feargod.com/FG_Articles/TheLordsTreasuer2.pdf

The first verse in Proverbs 14:16 is fairly straight forward:  "A wise man fears the Lord and shuns evil, but a fool is hotheaded and reckless."  If we are doing thins God's way, we stay away from evil and darkness and walk in the Light!  There are times that we do, however, look like a fool when we stumble and get frustrated at circumstances and situations.  We do sin, but God forgives!  He disciplines, but forgives and continues to walk with us as we grow in our Christian Walk.

"Better a little with the fear of the Lord, than great wealth with turmoil." 15:16  We live in the world, and one of the richest nations in the world.  By the world standard - money means power, happiness, prestige and prominence.  We live in the world, but are not part of the world and what we have we see as God's provision and blessing.  I am constantly blown away by God's blessings and His timing!  He is my Provider, my Sustenance, my Rewarder, my Redeemer, and my Heavenly Father - Savior - and Lord!

When you get a chance, take a look at the article that Lisa mentioned.  Take time today and sit with God for a while and tell Him your thoughts and listen.  God is good!
