“He who is quick-tempered does stupid things, and one who does vile things is hated.”

“Out of the same mouth come blessings and cursing! Brothers, it isn’t right for things to be this way.”

“Watch your step when you go to the house of God. Offering to listen is better than fools offering sacrifices, because they don’t discern whether or not they are doing evil.”

What do we go to the house of God for? Is it to offer God sacrifice to get something or to simply just hear from Him? Hopefully it’s to hear and learn!

“For everything there is a season, a right time for every intention under Heaven.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1 CJB

This is truth there is a season for everything! A time to be born, to die, to be sick, to be healthy, to be sad, to be happy, a time for war and a time for peace! We need to not fear the different seasons, but instead look for Adonai in everything and in every season of life!

“Human being, you have already been told what is good, what Adonai demands of you-no more than to act justly, love grace and walk in purity with your God.”

What God requires of us isn’t really complicated, act justly, love His grace and walk uprightly! He allows the different seasons in our lives so we can learn and grow, walking in His ways! So no matter the season good or bad, just remember God is with you all the way!

“They all go to the same place; they all come from dust, and they return to dust.”
Ecclesiastes 3:20 CJB

The things all humankind have in common is we all come from dust and will return to dust and we will all have different seasons of life! The difference is do you believe in Yeshua or not! The choice is yours to make, but know one day we will all breathe our last breath on this side of eternity are we living for Adonai or not?
Have a blessed day living for Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!
