Compared to Branches

Romans 11:16-23

When reading this place, I got two messages.

We are all branches broken off for a purpose, yet all should be grafted to the one tree; God.
We mush be grafted into the Holy tree, but we must remember that:
               - We are no better than any other branch,
               - And that we do not support the root, but it supports us.

Also...

If the roots are Holy, so are the braches. So if the core of our motivations and intrest are holy, then every out come, like our fruits, should be Holy too.

21. "For if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you either."
22. "Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, not kindness to you, provided that you continue in His kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off."
23. "And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in. For God is able to graft them in again."

so we as Holy people of God must act and bare fruits, showing our holy roots. He gave us a chance to show/do work for Him, and we must take it for He wont hesitate to give it to another.

July 14th = Proverbs 14

Another week and it would have been a whole month since I last posted... i could start making up excuses, like: "I've been busy", thus causing "no time".. but reality, I just have been lazy. but that doesn't mean lazy to read and pray,( even though there have been days) but lazy to post...

I have nothing very special to post, but a few proverbs. I usually try reading the proverbs Chapter corresponding to the date. Today is the 14th, so Proverbs 14 it is!

- 1 "The wise woman builds her house,
    but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down."

- 10 "Each heart knows its own bitterness,

    and no one else can share its joy."

- 13 "Even in laughter the heart may ache,

    and rejoicing may end in grief."

- 15 "The simple believe anything,

    but the prudent give thought to their steps."

- 26 "Whoever fears the Lord has a secure fortress,

    and for their children it will be a refuge."

-27 "The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life,
    turning a person from the snares of death."

- 29 "Whoever is patient has great understanding,

    but one who is quick-tempered displays folly."

-30 "A heart at peace gives life to the body,

    but envy rots the bones."

- 32 "When calamity comes, the wicked are brought down,

    but even in death the righteous seek refuge in God."

These are all the proverbs that stood out to me, and they have really good lessons and morals that i need to take for my self. May God help me grow in Him and know His heart.
