I hope everyone had a great weekend!
The book of Proverbs has SO many wise sayings! I thought to start the week, we would read through Proverbs 16.
Proverbs 16:3-5, 7, 23, 28, 32
Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.
The Lord works out everything for his own ends-even the wicked for a day of disaster.
The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: they will not go unpunished.
When a man's ways are pleasing to the Lord, he makes even his enemies live at peace with him.
A wise man's heart guides his mouth, and his lips promote instruction.
A perverse man stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close friends.
Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city.
I just pulled out a few verses, I encourage you to read the whole chapter! There's so much good stuff in Proverbs.
Everything you do--do it for God. Pray and ask God what His will is for your life and commit to doing it. When you work together with God your plans will succeed, because you are doing what He wants you to do.
This Proverb also talks about not being proud. Be humble in all you do. Give God the credit. Because only with God are all things possible!
