w00t passed all my exams! really only by God's grace. Thank You God!
Someone said tonight in cell something along the lines of "God will supply..". Which is true, since God is Jehovah Jireh, our provider.. at the same time, it is also said that our God will supply for all our needs. When that came into my mind, it felt as though God was asking me what the difference between 'need' and 'want' was, or do we treat it as the same thing? Our 'needs', are our essentials, things that are needed to live. Our 'wants' on the other hand are things that make our lives more comfortable. Simple example, everyone needs a house to live in, but we don't need a huge mansion to live luxuriously.. to have a big and fancy house would just be a want. God has promised to supply all our needs, and never promised to give us all our wants. Many times what we want isn't neccesarily what we need. And i think many people have the wrong idea of God being a person who gives us whatever we want, like winning the lotto, or driving a ferrari, and when they don't get what they want, they start doubting God and questioning Him. We have to becareful and remember what we learn from the Bible, and not to add or subtract from it. God keeps His word and does not lie!
Day 147.
Proverbs 20 -> drinking and getting drunk is a no-no
1 Wine is a mocker,
Strong drink is a brawler,
And whoever is led astray by it is not wise.
24 A man’s steps are of the LORD;
How then can a man understand his own way?
Proverbs 23 -> something thats taking me a while to learn..
17 Do not let your heart envy sinners,
But be zealous for the fear of the LORD all the day;
18 For surely there is a hereafter,
And your hope will not be cut off.
Proverbs 24
13 My son, eat honey because it is good,
And the honeycomb which is sweet to your taste;
14 So shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul;
If you have found it, there is a prospect,
And your hope will not be cut off.
