A few more nuggets from my Bible study book Proverbs: The Ways of Wisdom by Kathleen Nielson...as I've been catching up from what I missed while I was in St. Louis. Proverbs is a book of conviction, accountability, hope and God's amazing grace. It has really challenged me in so many ways.
"A hot-tempered man must pay the penalty; if you rescue him, you will have to do it again." Proverbs 19:19 (or the lazy man, etc.)
"A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones." Proverbs 14:30
"Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always be zealous for the fear of the LORD." Proverbs 23:17
"Pride, anger, and envy block the heart. Cleaning out such attitudes allows wisdom's qualities to grow in our hearts." (p.95)
"Discipline your son, for in that there is hope; do not be a willing party to his death." Proverbs 19:18
"As water reflects a face, so a man's heart reflects the man." Proverbs 27:19

- I'm married to a man in ministry and am a mother of two boys and two little girls. I love journaling about the comings and goings of our life so that we can look back 1) on how our great God and Savior has worked in and through us...2) and to see how our four little blessings change and grow over the months.
