Shade Tree Wisdom 4/6/2017
A good plan for living.
“If we live by the Spirit,
Let us also walk by the Spirit.
Let us not be conceited,
Provoking one another,
Envying one another.”
Galatians 5, 25.26
Paul here in his letter to the church at Galatia gives them guidelines for their living. Sound good to me, does it to you?

Shade Tree Wisdom 4/5/2017
This is the Lord’s promise to believers.
“The way of the Lord is
A stronghold to the blameless,
But destruction to evildoers.
The righteous will never be
Removed, but the wicked
Will not dwell in the land.”
Proverbs 10, 29.30
Here speaks the wise king Solomon who ruled many years revered for his wisdom.

Shade Tree Wisdom 4/4/2017
This is the only way for the Christian.
“What good is it, my brothers,
If someone says he has faith
But does not have works,
can that faith save him? . . .
faith by itself, if it does not
have works, is dead.
James 2,,14.17
A living and active faith always sees a need and works to fill it.

Shade Tree Wisdom 4/3/2017
Here is good news indeed.
“The Lord works righteousness
And justice for all who
Are oppressed. . .
the Lord is merciful
and gracious, slow to
anger and abounding
in steadfast love.”
Psalm 103.6.8.
Christians too often count on that “slow to anger” in our daily living.
