I decided to start this blog (2010) because my son, John-Robert gave me a One Year Bible for Christmas, the New Living Translation... reading it has changed my life... I post a daily Bible verse on my Facebook page every day and it has been well received... I thought that this would be a wonderful way to share part of what I read each day!... I hope that you enjoy it.



This Year 2012 I am going to do things a little different... not much...just a little. I am again reading through my One Year Bible (for the 3rd time). But I am also using "The Secret Power of Speaking God's Word" by Joyce Meyer. This book is divided by putting scriptures under different categories so they can be used to speak over our life situations. Each day I will read a category of scripture and pick a scripture in that category to write about.

9.16.11

Proverbs 23:15-16 My Child, if your heart is wise, my own heart will rejoice! Everything in me will celebrate when you speak what is right.

My Thoughts
I know that yesterday alone I said so much that was unwise.... We talk so much of the time without even stopping to think about what is coming out of our mouth. Often we talk just to be heard, to been noticed.  God celebrates when we speak what is right. With out a doubt,  we should be much more mindful of our words.  We should be mindful of our thoughts because our thoughts become our words. If what goes in  through our ears or eyes   is what becomes our thoughts we need to be very mindful of what we watch, listen to and read. God tells us to meditate on his word day and night. Knowing God's word is what will make our hearts wise.... speaking God word, letting people know that they are loved... that is what makes God celebrate. We take a step forward... we make a step closer to God when we become mindful of the words that come our of our mouth.... we need to be aware that if God isn't celebrating our our words, if God's heart is not rejoicing over what in in our heart.... the devil must be having himself one big party.  Wisdom is a choice we make, what we speak our of our mouths is a choice we make. We need to make a conscious effort to be aware of the choices that we are making every time we open our mouths.
