Proverbs in a Year...April 27.

Proverbs 14:7-8

7 Stay away from a fool,
for you will not find knowledge on their lips.

8 The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways,
but the folly of fools is deception.

Good thoughts for today. I hope you stay away from foolish people and from being one too.

Proverbs 14:5-6

5 An honest witness does not deceive,
but a false witness pours out lies.

6 The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none,
but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.

I like both verses today. I think most of us can think of someone, or a situation that applies to each one. I think of our government for the first verse. I think of people I have an acquaintance with for the second. I find people who are mocking, boring. It gets old and even they look old. "knowledge comes easily to the discerning" is quite the statement and places me in deep thought.

I lost my mojo...and it makes me sad.

I lost my knitting mojo and I hope it comes back soon.

I don't like this...

these are my Crosswires and I have had trouble from the beginning with knitting this one. I have had a co-worker explain the pattern to me several times, and really, I should know better.

or this...

I don't even remember what pattern it was that I was knitting because I CAN'T FIND THE PATTERN I WAS DOING!!! ARRRGH! and I so wanted to knit something with my homespun.

But nothing, and I mean nothing I choose to knit makes me happy. sigh.
I hope you have better luck than I am with your knitting, Good day.

Proverbs 14:3-4

3 A fool’s mouth lashes out with pride,
but the lips of the wise protect them.

4 Where there are no oxen, the manger is empty,
but from the strength of an ox come abundant harvests.

I do wish I had the strength of an ox and the attitude to use same in a positive manner. It would certainly help with gardening.

Proverbs 14:1-2

1 The wise woman builds her house,
but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down.

2 Whoever fears the LORD walks uprightly,
but those who despise him are devious in their ways.

Today begins Chapter 14 of Proverbs. Verse one brings to my mind the feminist movement from the 60s-70s. I find that for my generation we (female gender) have all but emasculated men. Its a shame really because now men really have no clue how they can treat women. One female will be offended if a door is opened for them while another (me) appreciates the gesture. I recently dated a gentleman that would stand up when I left the table and stand up when I came back. WOW!!! I really liked that!!

This morning I had a gentleman open a door for me and we had to go through a second, he was confident enough in himself and to realize that we are all confused, to let me know that he would open the second door we had to pass through if I would let him. I pleasantly and very much appreciatively, let him. I believe in celebrating men too and nice gestures are part of that.

Its interesting that a whole generation of one gender can tear something to pieces when we allow it. Lets build people up (even men) instead of the opposite shall we?

Grace to you, and remember to let others be nice to you, its really not all that bad, good day.
