The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook…. Day 11

March 20, 2018 by kareenkarol Leave a Comment

A man who isolates himself seeks his own desire; He rages against all wise judgement.

When you have more than yourself to think about you are able to expand your mind to help others.  Find a circle of like minded people to be with, do not isolate yourself in anyway ….be wise among your peers, seek wisdom and share your wealth of knowledge.  Be apart of something bigger.

The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook.

Words have such deep power when spoken…. good words are like planting a seed that grows and expands into the future, the more you learn to speak favour and wisdom the more that will flow out of you.

A fool’s lips enter into contention, And his mouth calls for blows.

A fool’s mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his court.

A soft answer turns away wrath BUT a harsh word stirs up anger Day 8

March 16, 2018 by kareenkarol Leave a Comment

 

Everyday has its ups and downs and everyday looks very different and yet similar at the same time. My days consist of being a mom first and all that goes along with it.

Sometimes it can feel like a lot, however if I put it into perspective it is only a short time in my life and there will be many days after my children are out on there own and I am not doing the day to day mom life.

One major part of my day is the words that I use to lift up and sometimes tear down my children, as well helping them learn how to use their words wisely to help them in the future. As I read Proverbs 15 so many of the Proverbs pertaining to the TONGUE really stood out to me.

A soft answer turns away wrath BUT a harsh word stirs up anger.

WOW I need this one written on my wipe off board and as well on my phone for a constant reminder.  So words of wisdom for keeping the peace and for a peaceful surrounding.  It is so much easier to solve problems when we are calm and reasonable…. No anger 🙂

The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly BUT the mouth of fools pour forth foolishness.

Knowledge is something that I seek everyday and there are all kinds of knowledge out there, I am seeking wisdom to know what knowledge is truth and what things I can let go out of my brain.

Wisdom = knowledge that I am seeking through this daily study through the book of Proverbs… what about you?

A wholesome tongue is a tree of life BUT perverseness in it breaks the spirit.

A tree of life that grows and flourishes, as I would like my life to be.  Being wholesome is rare in this day and age but you and I do not have to be like anyone else and we can be wholesome even in this day and age.  Remember Noah he was the only wholesome person that God could find in the whole world… Live how you desire in your heart to live.

The lips of the wise disperse knowledge BUT the heart of the fool does not do so. 

Back to our hearts again and how our lives stem out of what is in our hearts.  Keep renewing good and life into your heart.  What you put in will come out….

A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance BUT by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

More on our hearts and the life that comes from them.  I speak more on the heart in this post from  March 12

Better is a little with the fear of the Lord. Than great treasure with trouble.

Yes I like this Proverb just how it is, it rings true for me and I agree.  A little fear of the Lord is better that  great wealth and treasures of stuff and lots of trouble.  No thank you to trouble.:)

 

So much wisdom just waiting for us to find, read and put into our hearts.  I encourage you today to bless your heart and mind and soul with wisdom.

For 30 days I am studying Proverbs. 1 Proverbs a day, I read the Proverb that is the same number as the Day of the Month.  Being that today is March 11, 2018 … I turned to Proverbs 11 for todays wisdom.

My day was busy with sports again, as my daughter and I attended a 2 day Volleyball Tournament and they played 10 games over the 2 days.  Lots of fun and lots of work.  As a mom of 4 athletes there are many times a day that wisdom is required of me as a sounding board for the kids and how they are playing, feeling and responding to what is going on with themselves, coaches and other team members.

 

This month I am specifically looking for the wisdom of Proverbs… this is what I gleaned from today

Proverbs 11 the Key verses that stuck out to me.

When prides comes , then comes shame BUT with the humble is wisdom.

When there is no counsel, the people fall BUT in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

Humble = Wisdom

There is safety in many wise counsellors

 

How many wise counsellors do you have access to?  Do you seek out counsellors, do you go and sit at their feet and learn?

In the days that we live we are so blessed and have so much access to spiritual, financial and personal leaders through the internet, social media and we have the ability to fly here and there to learn from them personally.

We have more access to wisdom, knowledge and information then any one ever has before.

Are we using this information in a way that is beneficial to ourselves and our societies…

I am not sure we are.  Lets seek the wisdom of those that have gone before us and those that are wise counsellors in our lives today.  You have them just look around and see who is around you that is an expert in something in your life and learn from them

Be a seeker of WISDOM and thrive in it.

I’m With you each and everyday as we live this great life together.

Blessings Kareen

Everyday has so much potential for you to be inspired and learn as well there is potential for you to inspire others.

No matter what YOU make a difference in this world. I believe that with my whole heart.

Today as the 3 rd day in my 30 day study of Proverbs and the wisdom in the book of Proverbs.

It is and honour to share my thoughts with you and the  individual Proverbs that stand out to me.

Today was a very busy day with a volleyball tournament for my daughter and I know that what is going on in my life makes a difference as to what Proverbs stand out to me and which ones will stand out the next time I read Proverbs 10 . My favourite for today are

A wise son makes a glad father, But a foolish son is the grief of his mother

Read that twice… amazing just by being wise, seeking wisdom and paying attention to how to be wise is what makes a Father glad.  I take this as a son or daughter who is wise that makes a parent glad.  So important to honour our parents.

He who has a slack hand becomes poor  But the hand of the diligent makes rich 

Be consistent, diligent in all that you do and you will be successful.  Don’t let the negative thoughts that are floating around your head distract you from the God Given greatness of who you are.  Don’t be lazy BUT take action and become rich in every area of your life.

Wise people store up knowledge But the mouth of the foolish is near destruction

Once again we see and hear how our mouths can cause destruction… WOW…. lets be sure to be one of the wise ones and Renew ourselves daily with wisdom and good instruction.  What is in our heart is what comes out of our mouths. SEEK WISDOM and Live out the truth…. I believe in you

 

See you here tomorrow for some more wisdom in Proverbs 11

 

Blessings

Day 2 Of 30 Days of Proverbs

How to Gain Wisdom and Knowledge daily….

Read the Proverb’s chapter for the day of the month

Today is March 9 ….read chapter 9

Esch and everyday of my life I am presented with challenges and questions that I do not have answers for.  Life can be complicated for just me, however having 4 kids adds even more to the day.  I don’t know if you are single or have kids asking you questions or if you are beyond that, what ever your situation I think we can agree that there are a lot of unknown’s in the day.

Ask I go through the book of Proverbs in the next 30 days I am seeking daily wisdom.  I am also excited to find out answers along the journey.

 

These verses stuck out to me today

 

As for him who lacks understanding she (wisdom) says to him

 

Come and eat of my bread

And drink of the wine I have mixed

Forsake foolishness and live

And go in the way of understanding

Rebuke a wiseman and he will love you

Give instruction to a wiseman, and he will be still wiser

 

Wow such good words for those whom are seeking.  The Wise are thankful and able to learn as they are willing to admit that they need to learn and grow daily. We are to forsake foolishness … another words get rid of foolishness and gain wisdom. those that are willing to lay down their ego will grow in their wisdom.

Today My daughter and I had the opportunity to go and seek out some new opportunities for her future schooling and sports.  For us to not look at different options would be foolish.  Being put in a situation where we are outside of our comfort zone and not looking at the fear that could be associated with change I am able to help her think through and see all of the positives despite the negatives.

Being wise is something that is in you when you spend time studying wisdom, and also by talking to those around you that have wisdom.  Proverbs is the best place that I can find wisdom from the Great King Solomon, he is known as the wisest king ever.  The more I seek wisdom and the more I put it in my heart it will grow.

Looking forward to March 10 and the wisdom in that day.  Come along with me and lets gain wisdom and knowledge.

 

Blessings Kareen

How to Gain Wisdom and Knowledge daily….

Read the Proverb’s chapter for the day of the month that it is.

Today is March 8 so you read chapter 8

The verses that stuck out to me today are

Receive my instruction, and not silver
And knowledge rather than choice gold.

Those two lines reminds me how important it is to see wisdom and truth in life.  To take instruction and learn from it, learn from those that have gone before you and succeeded in the things you are working toward.

For wisdom is better than Rubies,
And all the things one may desire
cannot be compared with her.

Wisdom is so much better than Rubies.  There is no amount of money on this earth that equals what wisdom is to us.  Money/ Rubies are something of this earth and not a part of our eternal life.  Wisdom is better than anything that we desire.  I have crossed paths with some very wise people and I like to be quiet and just listen to them speak so that I can glean from there words.  Have you experienced this before?

Counsel is mine and sound wisdom,
I am understanding, I have strength

I love those who love me,
And those who seek me diligently will find me.

These are amazing words from our Creator God who does love each of us that is created his image.  Seek him and learn from him daily.

I am excited for tomorrow and the new truths I will learn in Proverbs 9

 

Come along for the 30 day inspirational journey.

 

Kareen
