These are short devotionals through the book of Proverbs.
Proverbs 9
Reread Proverbs 9:10
Read Psalm 16:7
Read Romans 12:11
Mine be the reverent (feeling
or showing deep respect), listening love
That waits all day
on Thee,
With the service of a
watchful heart
Which no one else
can see.
A. L. Waring
Nothing is small or great in
God’s sight; whatever He wills becomes great to us, however seemingly trifling
(unimportant), and if once the voice of conscience tells us that He requires
anything of us (when the Holy Spirit tells us what we must do), we have no
right to measure its importance (we can not determine whether or not we think
it is important). On the other hand, whatever He would not have us do, however
important we may think it is, is as nought (nothing) to us. How do you know
what you may lose by neglecting this duty, which you think so trifling
(unimportant), or the blessing which is its faithful performance (obediently
doing what He asks) may bring? Be sure that if you do your very best in that
which is laid upon you daily, you will not be left without sufficient (enough)
help when some weightier occasion arises (when you obey in the daily things the
Lord gives you, He will bring help to you in the more difficult tasks that are
asked of you). Give yourself to Him, trust Him, fix your eye upon Him, listen to
His voice, and then go on bravely and cheerfully.
