Thrive

He who seeks good finds goodwill,
   but evil comes to him who searches for it.

Whoever trusts in his riches will fall,
   but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.

He who brings trouble on his family will inherit only wind,
   and the fool will be servant to the wise.

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
   and he who wins souls is wise.

If the righteous receive their due on earth,
   how much more the ungodly and the sinner!

Proverbs 11:27-31

Observations

1.  Trusting only in the temporal will cause you to miss the eternal.
2.  Having a right relationship with God will produce a rich and fulfilling life.
3.  One of the wisest things you can do is share Jesus.

Prayer

Father, I lift your name on high and I sing your praises.
Thank you for leading me into a new season.

Today, I will keep my eyes on what really matters.
I will continue to build my life on my relationship with You, Lord.
Help me not to just survive, but I pray that I will thrive.

Help me to be wise with my time, talents and treasures.
I pray that I will be able to share my faith with another today.
In Jesus’ name, amen!
