“Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: But a good word maketh it glad.”
Proverbs 12:25 KJV
Solomon the wise king gives sound advice, take it! Stop worrying! Think instead of what brings you gladness. Anxious fear brings depression, but a life-giving word of encouragement can do wonders to restore joy to the heart. Our focus must never be on what we can’t change but on the everlasting joy we have in Christ. Sometimes we have to find the life-giving word of encouragement rising up in our own hearts. This is the secret of finding continuous encouragement by the Word that lives in us. That’s what Christ did through His death and resurrection, that He came to live in us, simply by us believing and inviting Him into our heart. The greater one than Solomon is here to make us reign in life with the wisdom from above. Thank You Jesus for being the Word in us to encourage others and bring joy!
