Health and Nourishment



Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

Proverbs 3:5-10 (King James Version)

Precious and Pleasant Riches


Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.

Right Timing


God's delays are not God's denials.
Lord, give me the guidance to know when to hold on and when to let go and the grace to make the right decision with dignity.

Rocking Chair

Worry is like a rocking chair: It gives you something to do but doesn't get you anywhere.

A Tree Planted By The Rivers


Blessed is the man
       who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked 
       or stand in the way of sinners 
       or sit in the seat of mockers.

But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
       and on his law he meditates day and night.

He is like a tree planted by streams of water, 
       which yields its fruit in season 
       and whose leaf does not wither. 
       Whatever he does prospers.

Psalms 1:1-3 (NIV)

Better Returns Than Gold

Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding, 

for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. 

She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. 

Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. 

Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. 

She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed.

Proverbs 3:13-18
