Knowledge of the Holy One Is Understanding

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. — Proverbs 9:19 

Being in awe of the Lord God is a way of drawing us to His wisdom.

And I need His guidance in my life each day.

More often than note, I rely on myself instead of turning to God.

But when I get into His Word and talk with God each day in prayer, I begin to walk in His wise ways.

And I start to think before I speak.

I begin to wait for His counsel and advice before I take action.

And I start to understand His will for me on a much deeper level.

Knowledge of the Lord, the Holy One, is the beginning of understanding Him and His ways.

Kirk's golfing buddy gave us tickets to join him for the Aztec game on Saturday. 

They didn't play well - at least the football players didn't, but the band was awesome!

Your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel

This is what the Lord says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go. — Isaiah 48:17 

God tells us he is our Redeemer.

The Holy One of Israel.

His is the Lord our God.

He teaches us what is best for us.

The Lord directs us in the ways we should go.

This Sunday we had a wonderful preacher, Andrea.

She reminded us to show gratitude each day to God.

He alone is deserving of our praise.

God Will Help Us

"I myself will help you,” declares the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. — Isaiah 41:14

God will help us.

He declares that He himself will help me.

The Lord is my Redeemer.


He is the Holy One of Israel.



Today I did a video conference with my oncologist to find out if the lump on my arm is lymphedema.

She is not sure, but thinks it definitely might be.

So it it's not gone in a couple of weeks, she will have me come in to her office.

At that point, she can refer me to a lymphedema therapist to help massage the area.

I am blessed to have such great care during this time.

God is my helper.
