If you are reading with me, today we are on Proverbs 27. (Remembering what to read in the Proverbs is as easy as remembering the day’s date when you read them with me.) That being said:

Today’s Reading: Proverbs 27

Using the SOAP devotional method, here’s what I heard this time…

Scripture: Proverbs 27:23

Know well the condition of your flocks

And give attention to your herds

Observation:

Pay attention to what is important.

Application:

For this means that I need to be sure to stay in touch with my kids. Business travel keeps me away from home more often than I’d like. In this season, I need to be sure to stay connected at home. 

Prayer:

Lord, please guide me here. Show me ways to connect. Help me to reach out and show love to my kids as I’m on the go. You have blessed me with some great kids. Thank you. Please help me to express to them what a blessing they are, and also hear their joys and struggles in the meaningful ways you intend. Guide me in guiding them. I could sure use your help. I love you. 

Here is what I have heard in the past when reading Proverbs this way and using SOAP:

• Tend to Your Fruit (Proverbs 27:18)
• Diligence, Consideration, and Duty Will Be Rewarded (Proverbs 27:18)
