Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the LORD and turn away from evil.
– Proverbs 3:7 (New Living Translation (©2007))
Human wisdom is very limited. Lean on God and stay on the path that leads to Him.
I led them with cords of human kindness, with ropes of love. I removed the yokes from their necks. I bent down and fed them.

Trust the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.
– Proverbs 3:5 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
God sees the past, present and future all at once so He knows what’s going on. TRUST HIM!
For the love of the Christ constrains us, having judged this: that one died for all, then all have died;
– 2 Corinthians 5:14 (Darby Bible Translation)
Christ’s love for us pushed Him to endure the pain He suffered for us. Should we not do our best to live for Him since He died for us?
[It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.

Men will let you down but God never will. He has your best interests at heart.
In the morning, O LORD, hear my voice. In the morning I lay my needs in front of you, and I wait.
– Psalm 5:3 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))

In Him all the parts of the building fit together and grow into a holy temple in the Lord.
– Ephesians 2:21 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
We are individuals but unified believers is where God wants to live, not in a physical building.
Can God’s temple contain false gods? Clearly, we are the temple of the living God. As God said, “I will live and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be My people.”
– 2 Corinthians 6:16 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
God doesn’t want to stop by for a visit. He wants to live with you 24 hours a day and seven days a week! Not just on Sunday!
Examine yourselves to see whether you are still in the Christian faith. Test yourselves! Don’t you recognize that you are people in whom Jesus Christ lives? Could it be that you’re failing the test?
– 2 Corinthians 13:5 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
It’s so easy to go through the motions of religious rituals but do you have the real faith that is demonstrated in the Bible?
