Good Morning!
It's Friday! How's your weekend looking? Mine is going to be busy and then my folks will be here on Monday! Don't forget your quiet times with the Lord! They keep you on the right path!
Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Proverbs 14:1 ~ You have a choice: Will the words you choose to say build people up or tear people down? In prayer, ask God to help you be a builder
"The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down. He who fears the Lord has a secure fortress, and for his children it will be a refuge." Proverbs 14:1 and 26
We know that this verse is not talking about a woman actually building her physical house, but in a figurative manner. The wise woman builds her house on a strong foundation - Jesus. She builds with words and actions and most of all love. In Ephesians we read that Jesus is the cornerstone - the beginning of the foundation. With Him, our homes will stand firm!
Words are so very strong and as we have said, can build up or tear down. Actions are also very important and sometimes speak louder than our words. If we are walking with Jesus and have Him as our foundation, our house will be strong and it will be a home that our children will come to as their refuge.
Stand firm and choose to be a builder! It is not always easy and we may get a few splinters and cuts and scrapes along the way, but the end result is out of this world - eternity! Let's do this together!
Have a Fantastic Friday!
