Proverbs 8 for 2017

To fully enjoy the brilliance of a morning sunrise or an evening sunset, you have to look – and then pause.

So, too, to the brilliance and love of God.
Proverbs 8:34-35 invites us to look, listen and pause.

Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.
For whoever finds me finds life and receives favor from the Lord.

With New Year’s Eve only a few days away, take some time to stand on the threshold.
Push pause. Inventory 2016.
What has God been up to this last year?
Push pause.
Listen.
Listen to the One who calls you to enter into this New Year courageous, expectant, and with eyes on him.
The promise?
For whoever finds me finds life . . .
New Year.
New Life!

First time here?
