31 Days of Wisdom | Day 20
Reading for today: Proverbs 20:1-30 Are your words speaking louder than your actions? This verse reminds us of quite the opposite. That the actions of a faithful man speaks louder than his words.

31 Days of Wisdom | Day 12
Reading for today: Proverbs 12:1-28 Pretty plain and simple, huh? The writer of the proverbs invites us to celebrate the painful act of discipline. This seems weird doesn’t it? That’s like saying, “Be excited about your house being foreclosed on!!” It just doesn’t line up with our way of response. But like it says, it’s […]
