Well, this past month I have been reading a wonderful book called "Spurgeon on the Holy Spirit". It's a really great book so id you're looking for a great book to read I would suggest that one. Spurgeon just goes over certain scripture passages and explains them and has his own thoughts in there. There are personal questions that he asks and then he answers them. I would strongly recommend this book to whoever would like to grow closer to the Lord our God. I hope that you have a great day and please read this book.

Confess Your Sins to One Another
This morning I was reading Proverbs 28 in my Bible and I came across this verse, "He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy." Proverbs 28:13 I really like that verse because it really explains what will happen if you don't confess your sins to one another. There are many other verses that talk about this same thing but we need to realize this. This is not just a little thing to think about. I was really pondering on it this morning during my quiet time. I don't want to cover my sins, I desire that the Lord would give me the strength to confess to one another. There have been many times where I have lied in the past so I didn't get out of trouble. I"m not proud of this but I let the flesh get out of me and not the spirit. I wouldn't desire to do that again but to share with someone about my sin. How about we work on this together????? Sounds like a good plan to me. I hope this encourages you and I hope you have a wonderful day today!!!

The Ways of Man are Many
Well, this morning I was reading Proverbs 16 and I had a couple verse that I really liked a lot. One of them is Proverbs 16:9, which says, "A man's heart plans his way, But the Lord Directs his Steps." I know that I think I have many plans in this world but I don't have any at all. I wish I did but it is really a good thing that I don't. God is in control of my life and I need to let him do whatever His plan is in my life. I pray that I will fear God more and Love him the way I should. I hope that this encourages you to do the same thing that I was encouraged with. Have a blessed day!!

Well, this morning I was reading my Bible and I cam e across this verse. Proverbs 14:3, which says, " In the mouth of a fol is a rod of pride, But the lips of the wise will preserve them." I really like that verse because I find that I sometimes have a rod of pride on me and I don't realize it until someone brings it to me. I know that I don't want that to happen to me again. I pray that the Lord would continue to bring verses to me that I need to hear. I hope that this encourages you and that you have a wonderful day today.

Isaiah 9:6
Well, this morning I was reading my Bible and I was reading Isaiah 9 which has a really great song in the chapter that I love. The words are, "For unto us a child is born, Unto us a son is given: And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." I just think that those words are so wonderful because God really is all of those things. Sometimes I forget how much God actually does for me but this verse brought me back to reality this morning. I love how it says that it will be upon our shoulders. I have never really thought of it that way before. Well, maybe the Lord would use this short paragraph that I wrote to encourage you and show you like he showed me. I hope you have a wonderful day today.

Praise the Lord
This morning I read Psalm 7 and I liked the whole chapter because it talked about how we need to praise the Lord according to His righteousness. The verse is "I will praise the Lord according to His righteousness, And will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High."I hope this encourages you today!!

Trust in the Lord
Hello Everyone,
Well, I am going to write about Proverbs 3 today. I know that I've probably already wrote about these verses a while ago but sometimes we all can use reminders. So, the verse is: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lead not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths." I really like this verse because it is such a good reminder to me that I need to fear and trust in God. I sometimes find myself struggling with something and then after the fact realize that I was trying to fix it on my own strength and not on God's strength. I figured it out, if you need some wisdom just ask the Lord and he will show you or tell you somehow. It has happened to me. He showed me this verse this morning and I just wanted to share it with all of you!!!!
