ON “LOVE COVERS ALL SINS.”

ON “LOVE COVERS ALL SINS.”

Apostle Peter cited this in 1 Peter 4:8. We could state this is valid in two senses, in that love covers the wrongdoings of others, and that affection covers the transgressions of the person who loves. Hatred brings inconvenience, but love brings healing. Love pacifies; eliminates aggravations; puts the best development on everything; and pours water, not oil, upon the flame. Love covers; love ignores; love excuses quickly; love overlooks. Brimming with authenticity and imaginativeness, it puts the best development on dicey issues and doesn’t uncover the…

ON “SEIZE YOUR OPPORTUNITY”

ON “SEIZE YOUR OPPORTUNITY”

He who accumulates in summer: The subterranean insect was recently introduced to act as an illustration of hard work in the mid-year (Proverbs 6:6-8). The thought here is of a wise individual who shows shrewdness by buckling down. Assembles in summer: An all-around picking season is the best bit of leeway of any activity, which, as it is only from time to time found in scurry, so it is time and again lost in delay. The men of Issachar were…

ON “THE VICTORY THAT’S YOURS”

ON “THE VICTORY THAT’S YOURS”

Eberhard Arnold said: “Have the patience and courage to begin again anew each day, and trust in God’s help; his mercy is new every morning. Then you will understand that life is always a matter of becoming or growing, and that you must always look forward to the greater things. Even though you stand in battle with dark powers, the victory will be yours, since in Christ every evil is overcome.”

ON “BENEFITS OF HARDWORKING AND LAZINESS”

ON “BENEFITS OF HARDWORKING AND LAZINESS”

He who has a leeway hand gets poor, but the hand of the tireless makes rich. A leeway hand: This depicts the passive individual, who doesn’t advance their hand vigorously to accomplish their work. We ought to do all that we can generously, as unto the Lord (Colossians 3:23). The writing of the persistent makes rich: Hard work usually is remunerated, and flourishing regularly goes to the individuals who work for it. The industry was the law of heaven (Genesis…

ON “HIGH SEASON OF HAPPINESS”

ON “HIGH SEASON OF HAPPINESS”

Joan Chittister said: “Try saying this silently to everyone and everything you see for thirty days: “I wish you happiness now and whatever will bring happiness to you in the future.” If we said it to the sky, we would have to stop polluting; if we said it when we see ponds and lakes and streams, we would have to stop using them as garbage dumps and sewers; if we said it to small children, we would have to stop…

ON “SOME OF THESE PROTESTS”

ON “SOME OF THESE PROTESTS”

A friend once asked, why all these protests? Several responses, of course! Proverbs 10:12 says; “Hatred stirs up strife:” Indeed, the consistent working up of strife and protest is proof of hatred. Works up hardship: Upon each slight event, by filling individuals with doubts and gathers, whereby they envision shortcomings where there are one and disturb each little offence. Hope we allow the love of neighbours to shine!

ON “THE WELL OF LIFE AND THE VIOLENCE OF THE WICKED”

ON “THE WELL OF LIFE AND THE VIOLENCE OF THE WICKED”

Proverbs 10:11 has something to say! The mouth of the honest is a well of life: A righteous man expresses nurturing words, frequently to other people and now and then to himself. Indeed, the reliance of life on the water is experienced existentially everywhere on over the earth, particularly in the antiquated Near East, where it is hard to come by. Streaming water admirably is incredibly valuable (cf. Jeremiah 2:13), and individuals accumulate around it. The open, kind discourse of the equitable…
