Thursday, October 4th - Proverbs 14:18 and 15:31


Good evening!

Wow!  I had a great time tonight helping with the pre-registration for Imagine!  It was an awesome time!  Tonight was the last night and I think it went well.  I was refueled and ready to go by the time the end of the evening came.  What a privilege to serve in that capacity.  It was amazing!

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Proverbs 15:31 ~ "Life-giving rebuke".  When someone tells you what you don't want to hear, maybe they're trying to save your life.  Wise people listen.

"He who listens to a life-giving rebuke will be at home among the wise."  Proverbs 15:31
We sometimes call this "life-giving rebuke" or refer to it as "Constructive criticism".  It is sometimes very hard to listen to, but we all need it from time to time.  
God cares about each one of us and even knows the number of hairs you have on your head.  Not just ours, but the whole world!  Can you imagine?  No we can't because we have an finite mind that cannot understand the infinite.

We need to do a lot more thinking before we speak and not just blurt it out.  It is important and who may be watching?  Sometime it is little ones and sometimes it is someone that just sees Jesus in you and wants that!  PTL!  

Keep your eyes open and be ready to receive the criticism given by friends and fellow Christians.  It is for your good and He will not let it happen all the time!  He will always give you strength to overcome.

Go have a great weekend.
Love y'all!
