Just a Guy and his Journey Back to God
Are you wanting to move closer to God? Have you had a relationship with Him, but drifted away? Do you struggle to do His will, hear His voice or live according to His will? Well, you're not alone! You and I have the same struggles. Here, I'll share my daily Bible readings, thoughts, struggles AND successes. It's my hope you'll be encouraged and know you aren't alone in your journey. I am just a guy who knows he needs to get closer to the Living God in order to live my best life and fulfill myself. What I'm not is a pastor, theologian or philosopher. I'm not smarter, more holy or enlightened than the next person. I'm just a guy trying to follow God's will.

Proverbs 1 - Practical lessons
Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching. Proverbs 1:8
THE BIBLE DOES NOT DESCRIBE how life ought to be. It matches how life is. The wisdom of Proverbs is reality-based counseling as we live in this fantasy-world of human invention. We see the blunt realism of the Bible in Proverbs 1:8-19.
Why are we in the book of Proverbs at all? Because so much of life is a series of nuanced judgment calls.
Join me in reading Proverbs 1 and be encouraged!
