exam results are slowly coming out! suspense or faith?
Day 146.
Proverbs 16
32 He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
33 The lot is cast into the lap,
But its every decision is from the LORD.
Found v32 interesting.. never knew we could rule our spirit? but in the verse, to be able to rule/control one's spirit is a good thing, it is compared to having patience which is better than power. To rule one's spirit, is that refering to our fleshly nature? e.g to be able to rule one's fleshy nature and desires which are after the things of this world? If it is, then it is definitely something that everyone has to work towards to.. we need to train up our spirit and discipline the flesh! Not finding it that easy to do so myself.. Daily crucifying the flesh!
v33. Does that mean that we get the options to choose, but ultimately every decision is made by the Lord? hmmm just something that struck me.
