Pathway: Chapter 5
Vs 1 “pay attention” How many times have I heard this? Am I paying attention if not I could wander off the path and get involved in situations that I do not need to be in.
Casting Crowns has the perfect song for this chapter (in my opinion) Slow Fade if you have not heard this make an effort to do so. Listen to the words very powerful. It makes me think about the condition of our heart and how we have to become as little children trusting and accepting (I think this is from the Bible, and this is the exact reason I have convinced myself that I can not witness because I can not remember were verses are)
“Oh be careful little eyes what you see” could easily have said pay attention little eyes to what you are allowing to come in to the brain.
This is probably too simple a way to explain this chapter but that is what is said to me.
Chapter 6
I am taking a class at church “Financial Peace University by Dave Ramsey. The first 5 verses of this chapter were used by Dave to encourage us to avoid debt. In fact he used a video clip of a Gazelle running to emphasize the need for us to avoid debt.
I guess since I am writing chapter 5 & 6 today that again I am drawn to Slow Fade, we do not get in to debt over night, it is usually a slow I want or I think I need process and one day we wake up and we have thousands of dollars on a credit card and wonder how did this happen. He goes on to use verses 6-11 as an example of how to solve this problem. Work work work, over time or a second job to debt out of your life. This is a good study and I would recommend it to any one.
What does God hate vs. 16-19?
1. Proud look
2. Lying tongue
3. Hands that shed innocent blood
4. Heart that devises wicked plans
5. Feet that are swift in running to evil
6. False witness (isn’t that lying?)
7. Sowing discord among brethren
There is so much in each of these chapters we could probably spend days on each of them but that is not the plan we must push on.
Thank you for walking with me and for the encouraging calls that I have gotten.
