Cathy,
Hey, girl! I LOVE the book of Proverbs - WHY? Because it's PRACTICAL WISDOM for daily living, and Lord knows I need all the HELP I can get form God's word every day!
I, too, have MANY favorite Proverb verses - thanks for sharing yours, friend!
BTW - Looked like your ministry area also had it GOING ON last night - GOOD FOR YOU & YOUR TEAM!
Hey, girl! I do LOVE the book of Proverbs...it's wisdom is timeless!
We had a great group of children and parents last night. God is just awesome, isn't He? I dreamed of the day He would grow this ministry and He is continuously answering this prayer. Why? Because we're reaching more children for CHrist. We had about 10 children last night ask about baptism - all indicated they had asked Jesus into their hearts. God has sent some wonderful friends to serve in children's & youth ministry as well! These are great people to do life with and are just a JOY to serve with!
