Day Eleven

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt mediate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. -Joshua 1:8

-I have planted God's Word in my heart, and that Word is life to me and health to all my flesh. Because I mediate on God's Word, I deal wisely in all affairs of life.

Words that speak to me

If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed but skill will bring success.
-Ecclesiastes 10:10

As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. - Proverbs 27:17

God' s grace will not lead us to do things at the expense of our future. Servitude and morality go hand in hand as we give our best to our work. Secure people serve with the right focus. We thrive even in heat. We are people who can stand the heat of life.

But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.
-Jeremiah 17:7-8

I cannot help but read on...

The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? "I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward a man according to his conduct, according to what his deeds deserve." - Jeremiah 17:9-10

Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. -Proverbs 4:23.

There is only one person that knows our hearts and He is God. Not even my family understands me at times. Man looks at outward appearances, be it results or looks. I guess this is because those are tangible things that reflect a person. Man is afterall human being. God, however, looks at our hearts. He alone knows our deepest dreams, thoughts and feelings.

May joy and wisdom abound more and more in our lives! Yea~*=)
