Good morning from Copenhagen! Today we board a train to Stockholm after 2 wonderful days in Denmark :) (Actually by the time you see this we will likely be in Stockholm already.) It has been a whirlwind and also fantastic. :) Today’s Reading: Proverbs 15 Using the SOAP devotional method, here’s what I heard this…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 13, Proverbs 13: Watch what you say
Hello there! Please forgive my late posting. The trip has been wonderful, but it has also meant crazy schedules plus lots of moving around. The night before we read Proverbs 13 I was on an overnight ferry. So please keep reading and hopefully I’ll get the posting back on track. That being said: Today’s Reading:…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 12, Proverbs 12: Diligence will be rewarded
Following along? Then you might have guessed it… This post was scheduled a touch early, too…. I’ll try to update you on our trip in the coming posts, but I didn’t want to risk something funky happening and the post not making it to you. So I promise I read and am reading. I hope…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 11, Proverbs 11: In blessing I am blessed
True Confession: I’m off to Europe with my daughter, sister-in-law, niece and friends this week. So, since this will need to go live while we are likely to be in the air or transiting somewhere, I wrote this in advance and scheduled it. I promise I’ll read again on the flight! And on to the…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 9, Proverbs 9: There is always more wisdom to gain by listening
Good morning to you! There is a definite contrast shown in today’s reading. I am reading both the NIV and Eugene Peterson’s “The Message” and Eugene’s names for wisdom (Lady Wisdom) and folly (Madame Whore) do not beat around the bush. In both instances, though, the Word was clear to me to listen, to learn.…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 8, Proverbs 8: Seek wisdom from Him and be blessed
Good Morning!! Sorry I’m posting a little late today. It was a full (but joyous) morning at our house as we were celebrating our daughter’s birthday. I had a cake to frost before she made it downstairs… and then the birthday girl said, yes, she WOULD prefer to have birthday cake for breakfast rather than…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 7, Proverbs 7: Keep His Word in my mind to battle temptations and distractions
Happy Monday! We are heading into our second week of reading together and I am so glad you are with me. Today we are on Proverbs 7. Proverbs 7 uses some specific words, but I think it is about more than just one meaning of adultery. Take a read then take a look. What do…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 6, Proverbs 6: Don’t let alluring things pull you off your path
SOAP’ing the Proverbs has, again, been awesome for me. I hope you are hearing Him loud and clear, too. Even if you aren’t up for SOAP’ing, I pray that you are reading and reflecting and talking with the Holy Spirit, at least a little, about what you hear. And on to today…. Today’s Reading: Proverbs…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 5, Proverbs 5: Do What Needs to be Done
We’ve made it to the weekend! Sometimes that is GREAT for me for reading the Bible and praying. Sometimes that makes it more challenging. Whatever your case may be, I do hope you are getting into a reading and listening groove as we make our way into the Proverbs together. Today we are on Proverbs…

Proverbs in 31 Days: Day 3, Proverbs 3: Calling on Him to make straight my path
Howdy! I am in Texas, y’all. And it’s Houston Rodeo time. So there. But back to the matter at hand… How’s the reading going? Are you finding time to soak in His word? Or are you flying through to check it off? I do pray that you are finding connection more than completion and that…
