Word-Filled Wednesday: In A Nutshell

This verse was an absolute favorite of mine for several years, and it popped into my head the other day. It seems like such a wonderful, all-encompassing verse. To me, it's the Christian life "in a nutshell." Follow this advice, and you're good. Yanno?

Thank You, Lord, for reminding me of this wisdom from Your word. Help me to live it. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

  14. Joanne, thanks for sharing that verse.. it's a good reminder for us to be patient in all things. It reminds me of a song I sing "Praise His name" no matter what I am going thru Praise His name. It's like when our focus is off us.. we can get thru things better. thanks for the inspiration.
    God bless ya,
