This week Proverbs 8 has been on my mind!? I read it on Monday and the truth found there just jumped out at me and stuck all week long. “Wisdom is the principle thing”[Prov 4:7] and Proverbs 8 so beautifully reveals it! So, without further ado, a couple of my favorite verses from Proverbs 8:
“I(←wisdom) love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Riches and honour are with me; yea, DURABLE riches and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.”
Proverbs 8:17-19
James 1:5 comes to mind where it says, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” I am so thankful God promises to give wisdom liberally/abundantly if we ask! May we seek to “get wisdom”[Prov 4:7]. Psst… to all those who follow my blog on a regular basis, I am pretty excited to announce I will be working on sharing 2 NEW blog posts each week from here on out at Shiloh Photography[Lord willing]! Whether it be photo shoots, random daily life, pinterest finds, or midnight mediation?, I’ll be blogging more often! It’s my desire for this blog to be a place where the Lord is praised, His Word exalted, and lots of fun is shared and I think there should be a little more of it blogged here [as long as the Lord allows]. ? So, follow along and don’t leave without letting me know what kind of posts you would enjoy seeing the most in the comment section!↓ Have a beautiful evening y’all!
“Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the Lord.”
Proverbs 8:34-35
I love your posts! So excited to hear there’s going to be more! ? I think my favorite are photos… I love seeing the world (and daily happenings) thru your lens!
Thank you, Elisha!!! ? Stay tuned for those photos. I’m thankful to have you as a dear blog reader!! ☺️?
How interesting… I also read Proverbs 8 a few days ago and meditated on wisdom in a new light. The next day I told a woman about an experience I had that related to what she was going through and she thanked me for giving her wisdom. The word just popped out at me. Honestly I felt humbled, because I didn’t think of wisdom when I was sharing my experience with her. Needless to say I felt the Holy Spirit was nudging me to have a deeper understanding, and here I am reading your blog. So timely, so interesting. I’m definitely asking God for wisdom on this one. :)
It’s funny how the Lord does that! I’ve often been struck by a passage and then several random people(many I very barely know!) share that same exact passage with me within a few days after I was struck by it. God is so good to continually reinstate His truth over and again in so many ways!! ☺️? your comment reminds me of a verse I read last night, “The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom.”Proverbs 10:21 ?
Love this post! My family is memorizing James 1. Timely words for me too! Thanks for sharing!
Looking forward to your twice a week posts! I love anything you post, but some of my favorites are birthday posts and daily happenings.
I don’t know if this would be too personal, but I would love to see posts of “a day in the life” of one of the Leakes and also behind the scenes of y’all’s businesses. Maybe even tips/life hacks that have helped you be more productive?
Thanks for all the creativity and encouragement you pour into your blog!
Blessings,
Leah
p.s. Is it possible to add a search box to your blog? I believe you might have had one before. Sometimes I am looking for a previous post and can’t find it very easily. Just a thought! No pressure. :)
Thank you, Leah!! ?❤️ I’m so glad you enjoy the birthday posts because there will be quite a few over the summer.
Not too personal at all! I actually love that suggestion of the day in the life of and any other suggestions you throw my way. They are super helpful when it comes to brainstorming for future blog posts! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
The search bar is actually a really great idea that a few people have asked for! It should just be a click of a button too so I will have one up in a jiffy, Lord willing. ??
It’s a blessing to have you join along for the future blogging fun is such an encouragement, Leah! Thank you .:) :)
