Proverbs - Day 12 ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—

in #christian-trail โ€ข 8 years ago

Hey guys ,

So today I got paid for speaking about God and what I love doing , steemit , I'm pretty happy today , which makes me more happy to share the word with you guys , how are you all doing??

Are you ready to read this chapter with me?

Let's begin ๐Ÿ™†

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid. Good people obtain favor from the Lord , but he condemns those who devise wicked schemes. No one can be established through wickedness, but the righteous cannot be uprooted. A wife of noble character is her husbandโ€™s crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones. The plans of the righteous are just, but the advice of the wicked is deceitful. The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood, but the speech of the upright rescues them. The wicked are overthrown and are no more, but the house of the righteous stands firm. A person is praised according to their prudence, and one with a warped mind is despised. Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant than pretend to be somebody and have no food. The righteous care for the needs of their animals, but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel. Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense. The wicked desire the stronghold of evildoers, but the root of the righteous endures. Evildoers are trapped by their sinful talk, and so the innocent escape trouble. From the fruit of their lips people are filled with good things, and the work of their hands brings them reward. The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice. Fools show their annoyance at once, but the prudent overlook an insult. An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies. The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment. Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil, but those who promote peace have joy. No harm overtakes the righteous, but the wicked have their fill of trouble. The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy. The prudent keep their knowledge to themselves, but a foolโ€™s heart blurts out folly. Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor. Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up. The righteous choose their friends carefully, but the way of the wicked leads them astray. The lazy do not roast any game, but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt. In the way of righteousness there is life; along that path is immortality.
Proverbs 12:1โ€ญ-โ€ฌ28 NIV

This just keeps getting better and better , who doesn't like Proverbs , wow I just love Proverbs so far , I don't know , it's making sense to me. I am loving all the verses and chapters , but let's take a look at the specific verses I chose.

It is pretty ironic in my case , just because , ever since I was small , I was given a ton of advice from home , school and everywhere. And somehow , I hated getting advice , I didn't like them at all. I used to think , why can't people just let me be me. For real , I thought that. Then later on , I came to China , for my college , and that's when I actually understood the value of advice , I almost was going to fall into traps , but my parents advice saved me. God saved me from many many situations , believe me guys , it was so easy to become bad , I would have , if it weren't for God and my family.

This is true too , so as I came here , I always had this fantasy in my head , where I had a group and we would do things together , you know like the Scooby-Doo gang , haha , now I'm exaggerating , no , not really , I love solving mystery , hehe . But I wanted that , so when I met these new people , I didn't see if they we're good or bad , I just wanted my fantasy to come true , because in high school and most of my life I was a geek , and I wanted a change , but , what I didn't know was , later on is when I found out some of my friends had some minor bad habits , but then I told them , guys , I don't drink , smoke or go to clubs or dance, that's just me , I don't want to change that , you know ! , I know I might have sound like a crazy person but , that stopped them from telling me what they do when they are not with me. Now , our group broke , and I'm at a good place actually , I did have to pretend a lot when I was with all of them. Not all , but some of them , I love my friends like my family , but they didn't have that loyalty towards me. So I guess it okay . They love their lifestyle , and me love mine. Now that I think , I should have chosen my friends carefully.

Haha ,I have no words for you , I had anxiety , like anything , especially during exams and stage performances . But I want to use past tense for that , mainly because I hate being anxious . And secondly ,my exam anxiety has reduced , through Christ . By praying alot. My stage fright , still goes on , but I am praying for a recovery. I hope I will get soon.

I feel what this verse says , cause when I am anxious , a small word of kindness can cheer me up , rather than someone making me feel bad again. So let's all be kind to others , cause we don't know , who is going through what , right!!

This is one of the reason , I began to move away from two of my friends , cause they liedto me , and I knew they were lying. But I forgave them , but they still kept doing it , I feel it hurts so bad , when you care for someone and when they like to you. So I would say , if you have anything to say to the other person , just be straight to the point , don't lie , even if it hurts , please don't lie.

Let's use love , kindness and joy to eradicate lie , jealousy and hatred from this world

Let's use our lips for good cause , let's speak good things , let's spread God's love.

We should always try to word hard , cause without hardwork , we can't always get things for free. We should try our best . Let's not give up.

Being a loyal person , in any relationship , is very important , cause otherwise , it would be a disaster , your relationship would be a lie , so being truthful about things is important.

This is my favorite verse for today , this verse is giving me more hope to be a good person , and to have faith in the Lord , so one day things would be better and good .

I hope this chapter was a blessing to you guys , please feel free to comment and tell me how you all are doing . And if you have any prayer request or anything. Cause I will pray for you . God bless you guys ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—
