Proverbs 18
As a follow up to yesterday's post, I am reminded of how we should be quick to listen and slow to talk and be angry. In many instances, what we don't communicate says much!
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, what an amazing God You are that You are so patient and You listen to ALL of my prayers and respond as well - it is not always the response I expect or initially desire but I know You love me and have great plans for me - not for harm but to prosper me and for a future. Thank You Jesus! I am not worth such love and blessings. I often fail to listen. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome and turn from my sin towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and have them choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
To answer before listening—that is folly and shame. v13
