Proverbs 28- 29-30 and Back to chapter 1

Chapter 28
I am burdened because I was not supportive of a friend the other day. I kept telling them my opinion of what a mistake I thought they had made. I was not encouraging to them even though I am sure He had prayed about the decision he had made. Reading this chapter Verse 13 really brought this to mind.
“He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confess and forsakes them will have mercy”
I did call and tell him that I was sorry for being so opinionated and that I was sorry that I was not more supportive of his move. He said there was not need for the call and I told him that God had convicted me of how wrong I was and that was all the need I needed.
Chapter 29
I may have a right to my opinion but I really do not need to share it so freely. When do you think I will learn to just shut up?
Vs 11”a fool vents all his feelings but a wise man holds them back.”
Vs 20”Do you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.”
Vs 23 “A man’s pride will bring him low, but the humble inspirit will retain honor.”
Father God, help me with my tongue problem. Guide me to remember all I have is a gift from you and that it really belongs to you, I am only allowed to use it. In Jesus name I ask and may You be glorified in my life. Amen
Chapter 30
The last day of June let’s just think on Vs 5Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him”
The aim is to read a chapter a day. We have done well in June, perhaps like me you might want to get a different version to read for July as if you could not tell I have been using the New King James version. So ready or not here we go----
July 1, 2009
My thought this morning before I began to read was –am I doing this so I can say I did it (pride) or am I doing this so that I can check off on a list of accomplishment, or am I learning from my Father so that I can be better and during my reading of the first chapter of Proverbs this verse was brought to my attention
Vs 23”Turn to my reproof, behold, I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you”
Father, grow me in you for Your glory and honor. Amen
