Time... such a precious thing...
I don't seem to have enough of it. But it keeps going and it's time for the next verse...
Proverbs 16:24 (HCSB)
Pleasant words are a honeycomb: sweet to the taste and health to the body.
I just realized this encouraging verse the other day courtesy of a friend. I hope it encourages you as well!

Truth
It's a new month which means it's time for a new verse.
Jeremiah 31:33 (ESV)
But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Now, I learned this verse years ago in Bible Drill. However, I was reminded of the importance and significance of this verse in our Life Group yesterday. Let me share some of our discussion...
God is creating a new covenant with His people. He's taking away the old one. The new covenant is basically the story of Jesus. The new covenant introduced a personal relationship with God which was made possible through Jesus' life and death. And it's our responsibility to "maintain" this covenant.
Well, that's all I've got for now. I promise pictures and more blogging are coming soon!
Until next time,
Enjoy each day you have!
