Are you keeping an eye on your household?: Watch Carefully!



"She watches carefully all that goes on throughout her household, and is never lazy."
 Proverbs 31:27 Living Bible

Lady Wisdom asks, “Are you keeping an eye on your household?”

Watch carefully! These two words are speaking to me! I think that we do not pay attention to things that happen in our lives and we become complacent and lazy. Then we find ourselves in a big hole and wonder, “How did we get here?” Paying attention to our household to me is not just looking at what is happening in our physical houses but what is happening in our physical body or life that God has given us. We are the temple of the living God. We need to make sure that we are feeding and caring for ourselves in all areas of our lives, body, mind, soul and spirit. We cannot get lazy!

Still, we need to be watch carefully and be cognizant of what is happening in our families. We should be also looking at the systems and routines in our household. Are they efficient and effective? Looking at ways to improve the process and the living conditions of our household takes courage and takes energy!

 Watching carefully at what is happening in our communities is imperative. We need to be thinking of the next steps of moving our children and all who we influence in the right direction. It is vital to look at our communities as extensions of our households. Our children and loved ones have to enter into the community. If the community is filled with violence and lack then our children will not be safe. We cannot be “lazy” and sit back and expect others to look out for our household. We have to make sure we equip our children and others to succeed.

Blessed by the Family


 "Her children stand and bless her; so does her husband. He praises her with these words: There are many fine women in the world but you are the best of them all!" Proverbs 31:28 and 29 Living Bible

Lady Wisdom asks, “Do you have the respect of your children and husband?”

The Proverbs 31 Woman earned the respect of her household, the people she loved. To receive the praises of your children and husband is the most humbling experience that any woman can acquire. There is a satisfaction, a sense of accomplishment and peace when this happens. You feel fulfilled!

Many women long to be loved deeply by their family. The way to make this happen is to follow the ways of Lady Wisdom and let her direct your path to a complete, balanced and successful life. Seeking the Lord is the first step. Trying to discover who you are without asking the one who created you is a waste of time. Your creator God will reveal to you what needs to be restored and how to make it happen.

Goodness Rules! He who shuts his ears to the cries of the poor will be ignored in his own time of need. Proverbs 21:13 TLB Lady Wisdom asks, “Why do you ignore the vulnerable and weak among you?” Jesus Christ in his ministry on Earth specially came to change the conditions of the poor and needy. He wanted them to know that they do not have to be poor anymore. The Bible says that He, Jesus went around doing good. He even fed the people and looked out for their well-being. Min istry to the poor is part of the Christian calling. We are to not overlook the poor. Something very troubling in our society is the disregard for the less fortunate. The spirit of greed seems to be rising in the places and institutions that were considered to be a support system for the needy. Churches, schools, hospitals, and government appear to be overtaken by individuals who only see them as ways to make money. It is abusive in nature. These institutions, which use to be people-focused, are now, profit-...

Dr. Cindy Trimm my Spiritual Mentor The words of Dr. Cindy Trimm have guided me on my wisdom journey. Wisdom from the Elders - those who have already gone that way of difficult living can impart knowledge to us through their experiences and insights. They carry much knowledge so we shouldn't neglect what they have to say. We should pay attention to what was said. It might not necessarily apply to the present scenario situations that we experience today. Yet, there are nuggets of truth in their words. The elders (our parents and spiritual mentors) were probably referencing their time or era. Their understanding of the situation may be conceptualized from their point of reference. As I was reading Proverbs 1: 8 (AMP), “My son, hear the instruction of your father, and do not reject the teaching of your mother.” These are the words of wisdom that spoke to my soul. A father's exultation requires wisdom. "My child listen when your father gives correction." We sh...

"For the reverence and fear (respect) of God are basic to all wisdom. Knowing God results in every other kind of understanding. I, Wisdom will make the hours of your life more fruitful. Wisdom is its own reward, and if you scorn her, you hurt only yourself." Proverbs 9:10-12, Living Bible Lady Wisdom asks, “Who do you respect?” As a society we need to get back to basics. Acknowledging that there is a God, sets our feet on a solid foundation for life. It will produce boundaries for our daily living. It is like having a constitution for our lives. We know the truth – God is. He is the “I Am.” Having this respect for God, helps us to respect his creation, the world and everything that is in it. I think because we know that there is someone bigger and greater than us, compels us to be accountable to that person. Believing in God causes us to live with integrity. We are not just living for ourselves but also to please God. Our parents play a role in our lives as bein...
