There are three books in the Bible that are made up what is called the Wisdom literature. They are Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Job. Love to hear what you think of this first part.

I Keep trying so hard, to please God, but seem to find myself falling short! Have you ever felt that you are not good enough? Listen to the song below, but then see comments. The says, there are Way, that is good enough for you,with the freedom to fail, knowing that you are enough.
ALL of us have failed, it says in the Bible, by trying to find our own way, yet that is not the end of the story for anyone who finds the right way. Coming to the reality, that we are not good enough, is the first, step, in finding freedom. God sent his son, Jesus, who was fully God, and fully Man, to help us get to the place we all want to be. That is right with God. Jesus, came and lived a perfect life, with no blemish of sin. He gave his life for our, that anyone who believes, would be made right with God, for this present life, but for all of eternity. Jesus said this, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, No Man, come to the Father, Except, through, Me! Very clear, that He is the only way.

Isn’t it great, that God, provided a Way, that we can be freed from this burden, of our own self righteous selves, and be loved by a God, who care forever us deeply enough, to give his only son, to take our place of judgement? If you have questions, please feel free to ask someone around you, who you know and trust who is a follower of Jesus, or send a note on the message. Many here would be glad to give you guidance.
Books of Solomon Overview: From “The Bible Project”
Each book offers a unique perspective on how humans are to attain wisdom and honor God. In this video, we briefly explore how the message of each book fits into the overall story of the Bible.
Consider below the image, the opposite of walking/living by the Spirit. Which do you think would give you more peace and joy, even in the midst of trials? We do not walk alone, as we walk in the Spirit.
NOT WALKING BY THE SPIRIT
“Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.”
Galatians 5:19-21 NASB1995
PRAYER
FATHER, help us remember each day, that walking by the spirit, is a gift from you above, that by not falling into the trap, of all the deceptive lies of this world, we can live a life of Hope, and Love and Joy, and Peace.
Amen
Psalm 100 – A Psalm of Thanksgiving & Gratitude
As we approach this beautiful season we call Autumn of Fall, may we approach this changing of the season, with a heart ❤️ of Joy and Thanksgiving, (In spite of our circumstances). Every day is a gift from God, whether you know it or not. Take the time, to remember, all the things that God has blessed you with, and not the circumstance you find yourself in. Whether you know God or not, take the time in a quiet place and seek him out. Ask him to reveal himself to you in a personal way. He love us, in spite of ourselves. He care so much, that HE created us in his own image. He gave his only son, to take our place before him, that we might stand before him, without blemish. Is that not reason to rejoice, I ask you. If you can take the time, in your stillness, take a moment and listen to the song below of Gratitude, by Brandon Lake, but more importantly, reflect on his Word, from the Psalm 100. I this will be a blessing it is for you, as much as it is to me.
Thanks for your time.
