Wisdom - knowing God's Words, and intentionally applying it to your life. <- this is how you walk in wisdom.  We must put filter our lives through the Word and put our shoulder to the plow rather than squandering our opportunities.  Try to understand what the will of the LORD is for YOU.  Not just "Lord, Lord!", but he who does what God wills will enter the Kingdom of Heaven.  You can't enter the narrow gate and walk the broad path.  "How you walk" is in the Bible, because it DOES matter how you walk.

There's a difference between time and opportunities; I may have more time, but I will not have this opportunity.

TODAY is the day the Lord has made - let us rejoice and be glad in IT.

What can I do be doing/starting that employs the talents and time I've been given to glorify Him or benefit and bring attention to the importance of the people around me?



My time is not my own, Jesus - please show me how you would you have me use it.




Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine AND PUTS THEM INTO PRACTICE is like a wise man who built Hid house on the rock.  The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against the house; yet it DID NOT FALL, because it had its foundation on the rock.  But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built His house on sand.  The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash. (Matt 7)

The WISE woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down. 
(Prov 14:1)

“God is God. … He is worthy of my worship and my service. I will find rest nowhere but in His will, and that will is … unspeakably beyond my largest notions of what He is up to.”

Charles Spurgeon, on 2 Timothy 1:9... "Those whom the Saviour saved on the cross are in due time effectively called by the power of God the Holy Spirit to holiness. They leave their sins, and they endeavor to be like Christ. They choose holiness, not out of any compulsion, but from the influence of a new nature, which leads them to     rejoice in holiness       just as naturally    as before they delighted in sin. God neither chose them nor called them because they were holy, but He called them so that they might be holy, and holiness is the beauty produced by His workmanship in them. The Christlike qualities that we see in a believer are as much the work of God as the Atonement itself.  Thus the fullness of the grace of God is brought out very sweetly... The believer's privilege is a present salvation; the evidence that he is called to it is his holy life."

I haven't a voice the past three days (which said days included new years at the Robinetts - I talked zilch, laughed too much =P).  Yes, yes... I have a cold.  I've learned a couple things after losing (and somehow maintaining the fact) this voice of mine: 1) I talk more often than I should.  My lack of being able to express myself has shown me how often I shouldn't. 2) I need to think more before I express myself.  I tend to throw so much out there, speaking my mind when others may just (gasp!) actually not want to hear it.  Humility, Anna dear.  3)  I'm really grateful I have a voice.  When I do have one, of course. My thought process right now: 1) I need to go do something useful and worthwile. 2)  I need to be journaling here more often... cause I've gotten way out of the habit, and I have sooo many thoughts I want to write down every morning I read during devotions.  I need to make this a bigger and better priority in my life than...
