Wisdom
If I'm gonna know God's will for my life, I'm gonna need wisdom to try the spirits, whether they are of God. In Ecclesiastes, it says the heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, while the fools abide in the house of mirth. They that are wise and abide in Christ are joyful, but I want to know more of why the wise are found in the house of mourning?!? I don't want to abide in the house of mirth. A wise man put it this way: Fellowship and fun are the spice of life, but who wants to eat a meal of just ground cinnamon or table salt? I want wisdom... in everything. I want wisdom to know how to make an appeal, when to charge and when to calmly approach, how to act and react..... whoe, there's so much.
Key verses: Ecclesiastes 7:4, Proverbs 14:15
Knowledge
I have more questions than ever before, and they're not being answered fast enough for my running soul. I am an over-flowing cup of curiosity! The whole world seems to be screaming at me to go to college, when the knowledge I've been blessed with so far tells me the truth - college can't teach me anything that I can not teach myself. I pray that one day, if God chooses to bless me with children, they won't waste their years wondering and day-dreaming so much about things without looking it up, especially if the information is within their house! Knowledge can save lives, it can reform ways of thinking, it can prepare us for the life that's coming - a hard life. We'll be under the yoke of a tyrant for the next 4 years, and with the right kind of knowledge, we'll be okey. I'm glad I'm still young and single and free to study study study. Key verses: Proverbs 1:28-33, proverbs 24:3-5
Cranberry juice
Why, you may ask? Let's just say it helps ALOT to cleanse and heal the liver and kidneys, and it helps to detoxify the whole body, as a matter of fact. And it's sooooooo bitter, until you dilute it with water and add Stevia powder (alternative to sugar - NO I am NOT on a diet!). Yummy..... it also masks the bitter taste of Milk Thistle and Herbal Detox drops. lol... I love my cranberry juice.
Patience
Lotz of things are about to start happening in my life, and some things just aren't coming soon enough, while other things are arriving too quickly. My passions are being tested and encouraged in so many circumstances. My convictions are being challenged and strengthened every day by different sources. I have more questions than ever before, and they're not being answered fast enough to satisfy my running soul. I've been asking - begging - for patience to be given me, and God has been allowing trials to come up, raining tests upon me, and much more. Every trial is welcomed through the trouble it brings. Every test is so loving and given with grace to face and conquer. Key verse: 2 Corinthians 4:8-10
