CONCEPT FOR THE WEEK

GROWING IN STABILITY (Day 1 of 6)

I’m back to reading Proverbs each day.

… with a man of understanding and knowledge, [a land’s] stability will long continue.  Proverbs 28:2b ESV

Now, I know this verse is about a ruler bringing stability to the land, but the concept of linking understanding and knowledge with stability caught my eye.

STABLE TREE

Lately I’ve been seeing the benefit of personal stability and the cost of a lack thereof.

stability: steadfastness; constancy, as of character or purpose

Let’s take the day and talk to God about growing in stability. Where do we get this understanding and knowledge so we can be constant in character?

I’m starting out with 1) listen to God, 2) listen to people who exhibit stability, and 3) learn from the fruit of what I do (is it helping or hurting).

What are your thoughts? Where do you go for insight and knowledge?

I was out weeding in our community garden and I came across these.

BABY POTATOES

I’ve planted onions, carrots, beans, and potatoes in this area and these little green things don’t belong.

Well, turns out they are a bit unusual, so that’s why I didn’t recognize them. Normally the flowers on potato plants just dry up and drop, but this year the weather was such that they actually produced little seed potatoes. Cool, huh?
