Slow Steady Growth!
Proverbs 13:7-11
There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches. The ransom of a man's life are his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke. The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out. Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom. Wealth gotten by vanity shall bediminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase. Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
Wait on the Lord for the best in life and in each of your desires you will find the fullest portion. You will also know the joy of trusting God with abandon!

ReplyDeleteYou're really talented.
Thank you for the encourgement.Many times I am suprised by what I do. Not because I have talent, but because God gives me talents.
ReplyDeleteI have to laugh when I am able to do something wel.I can honestly say most of the things I have accomplished successfully were not things I felt skillful doing. This is the truth "
Philippians 4:12-14
12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Psalm 121
1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
God and his child (when his child is not being selfish and a fool) have all the talent in the cosmos.
Thanks again for the compliment it refects well on my creator!
