Now is the time to find wisdom at Proverbial Thought!

As discussed this past week, we are all waiting for something. We do not like waiting for time to go by for something, but for the right reason we can be patient.

What is your reason for patience?

time is

time is fleeting
gone in a moment
time has no meaning
without a reason
time lasts forever
when filled with love
time is always and never
too much and not enough
time is fulfilling
when you have purpose
time to turn to the King
and His Son Jesus

Find the wisdom of Proverbs through Proverbial Thought.

Last week I talked about God being in control. This week I continue by asking who you trust to control your days?

in a moment everything can change
so trust your God to help
the true God controls all moments
and He is there all the time
turn to Him who is always there
He will lift you up when in need

Seize the day and find wisdom at Proverbial Thought!

God is in control. We should let Him have that control. It is the only way to get the most out of our time, and it should always start today!

there is no time like today
no matter what anyone may say
history has a lot come around
some similarities that abound
but time proves only one truth
that it cannot be controlled by me or you
but does listen to Someone and
has to obey His every command
time is in the hands of the Creator
the One who made life and love and matter
do not worry about the time you have
only God can truly guide your path
live your life to the best
and giving others nothing less
use your time serving the King
by giving Him your everything
then your time will be worthwhile
nothing is better than making God smile

Wisdom is exposed at Proverbial Thought.

We were made for God’s pleasure, to seek Him, to worship Him, to believe in Him.

 

I loved you and always will

I loved you and love you still

I created you to have fellowship

I created you for My worship

I wanted you for My child

I wanted you all the while

when you turned away

when you went astray

when you denied my Name

when you left your faith

when you said no to me

when you hung me on a tree

but you came back when I called

but you accepted your fall

I still love you in spite of this

in fact I forgot all you did

     because you accept what I did through My Son

Remember to find wise thoughts at Proverbial Thought!

We must not be afraid to seek out all we can about God.

Jesus did teach us, “Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness . . .”

It is okay to ask questions, no matter how difficult or how silly they may seem. We just need to remember to listen for the right answers. 

 

questions

i try to answer a simple question

Who is God

i find out that it is not really all that simple

more questions

i have more questions

the established church today says

do not question God

but then how can i know Him

if He is really the Almighty

He can take questions

He likes questions

they push into understanding more

that He is beyond our understanding

but wants us to know Him

His answer will always end with

I love you

His answer will always include

I love you

Question God

He will answer

Seek out wisdom through Proverbial Thought.

Another summer is upon us.

In Phoenix, the summer heat can really sap you of your energy.

However, summer is also a time when students and teachers may find time to recharge and relax a little.

We are most revived by God, by His power and compassion. By His Holy Spirit. Only He can reach and save the lost.

 

Lord

revive our spirits

give us the power

the authority

the desire

to share Your Name

to declare Your glory

and forgiveness

and Love

to a fallen world

use the fallen

who are redeemed

to reach the fallen

who have a need

for You

Love God? Seek some of His wisdom over at Proverbial Thought.

 

He moves

He moves our Spirits

He is in us

His power moves in us

O Lord

O God

You move our lives

when we give them to You

this is more than an action

it starts with a choice

it is our life inside

You taking control

because we respond

we give You control

where it belongs

You are the Lord of it all

You shake the foundations

You disrupt our lives

You want them to be Yours

My Lord

change my life

shake my foundations

remove my false foundations

be my foundation

send me through

through Your refining fire

make me pure

get me to the point

the point of reflecting

Your glory

purify us all

O God

make us Your children

You are God

we are not

we are not

help us realize

You are our God

Find honor through wisdom over at Proverbial Thought.

We serve a great God. He deserves all praise and glory.

Your Wisdom is perfect
Your love beyond comprehension
You orchestrate our lives
while managing all of creation
how could a God so great
Who is bigger than everything
be content with a little speck
or love such tiny beings

You have planned out our days
and know all we could say
before we ever speak
or even finish to conceive

Your ways can seem ominous
the events in life strange
but it all works to Your glory
and i must give You the praise
You made me before time
and knew all of my ways
You counted all of my hairs
and mapped out all my days
i bless Your Holy Name
and offer You my life
in praise of Your greatness
for You i will live until i die

Be wise and head over to Proverbial Thought for some wisdom!

 

HAPPY MOTHERS’ DAY! You are appreciated and loved through this blog! Thanks for all of your hard work and love mom’s. You have shown us freedoms through your teachings, warnings, and devotion.

We all desire freedom from something.

We are all a slave to something in this life, and we want freedom.

Ironically, freedom can be found when we fully give ourselves over to one thing, allow it to control the way our lives will run.

To what do you give your life over? To Whom do you give your life over?

 

 

 

 

free yourself

 we all live in bondage
a slave to something
we are born slaves to
our wickedness and sin
free yourself
there is no need to suffer
our lives stuck in place
we may be happy here
but joy has no place
free yourself
there is a way to be free
to remove the weight sin brings
turn away from the sin
and make Jesus your King
free yourself
when a slave to the King
true freedom is released
with Jesus Christ in control
there is real joy and peace
so
free yourself

Find some hope through the wisdom discovered at Proverbial Thought.

A major problem with most of us is that we feel like we have to do things right, clean things up, and live rightly before God can use us or change us. We feel like we have to fill our lives with so many things to help us grow and be better.

If there is one thing Eastern religions have right, it is that we need to clean out. We need to clear out all of the rubble, all of the frustrations, all of the things.

Where those religions fall short is that we must then be filled again.

in emptiness

in emptiness
He can be found
when you feel empty
He fills you up
in times of need
He is there
empty hearts
are where He lives
empty souls
His best friends
in emptiness
He draws you close
in emptiness
He calls out to you
in emptiness
He fills you

with Himself
