The Proverb Challenge: Day 8

For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
 - Proverbs 8:11 KJV

Wisdom is far better than wealth says King Solomon. For a world that is always materialistic in nature, Wisdom is the only way out. The difference between the foolish and wise is Wisdom. The foolish always think money is everything but the wise knows that Wisdom is everything.

Wealth can be lost, but Wisdom will always remain. The value of Wisdom is more than wealth. While it is good to desire wealth, Wisdom should come first. Desire Wisdom and all the wealth you seek will come along. The world is in poverty not because there is shortage of money. It is because there is absence of Wisdom.

Where there is an understanding heart, and willingness to receive the truth in love, wisdom is valued above silver and gold.

The best thing a man should desire is Wisdom. A child of God must desire Wisdom. What makes you wise is not the amount of money you have but the Wisdom in you.

You can't have Wisdom in you and not be great. Wisdom is the path to greatness. Seek Wisdom, desire it so much. In it, you will find all the good things that you seek.

Main Point: What makes you wise is not the money you have but the Wisdom in you

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

Unlimited Thanksgiving

 "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Our thanksgiving should be unlimited. Even If we have thousands tongue to thank God with, it can never be enough. Looking all around you, you will always find a reason to thank God. This year might be so challenging for you, things might not have gone smoothly as you expected, nevertheless you have got to thank God. We do not thank God FOR difficult situation but we thank God IN difficult situation. Don't just be that person that only does thanksgiving when things are going on fine. Don't be that person that thank God seasonally. Don't be that person that thank God only when they have a 'big' testimony to share. Don't be that person that just thank God just because the preacher asked them to. God has been so good from ages past. No one else deserves our appreciation more than Him. You will be...
