Proverbs.
Not wasting words.
Telling it like it is.
Proverbs 12:1 says,
“…but one who
hates correction
is stupid.”
Hmmm.
Yes.

Deny yourself
Early in my adolescent years, Mom remarked, “If Dad said the sky was blue, you would say it’s green.” Her words stand out in my mind.
Although I most likely protested (duh), inside I knew she was right. As I grew, maturity glossed over that stubbornness.
But pride still hovered close to the surface.
I was 29 when I married Todd and 33 when our first child was born. Suddenly a lot of “set in my ways” was unset and upset.
Then we arrived in Pakistan in 1992.

His lamp
“The Lord’s lamp sheds light on a person’s life, searching the innermost parts” (Proverbs 20:27).
Searching out secret compartments and hidden recesses that need to be opened. Exposed.
His lamp. Illuminating darkness.
