Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 17. I will then key in on verse 9 - He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends. Friends, we do not like to be reminded of mistakes with people who are important to us. To keep peace in our relationships (especially in a marriage relationship) I suggest that you learn to overcome small petty things that our loved ones do to us. Let's remember the old adage, "What would Jesus do?" That's all we need to remind ourselves of. Today I would like to close the week with a passage of scripture which I ask that you meditate on. I go over the first chapter of 1st Thessalonians, and read verses 2-10 ( NLT). This chapter is a reminder how we all should live our lives. Let's pray for our loved ones and the people who are important to us. Let's be the salt of the earth and make every situation we enter into better because we've been there.
Call to Action - Ask God to shine a light on anything in our lives that is not pleasing to God. If you are not walking in the joy of the Lord, ask God to give that to you, and I believe He will answer that prayer.
Suggested Scripture reading: Read he 1st chapter of 1st Thessalonians; Read Psalm 1; read Psalm 23.
