Anchor
Proverbs 4:2-4 “for I am giving you good guidance. Don’t turn away from my instructions. For I, too, was once my father’s son, tenderly loved as my mother’s only child. My father taught me, “Take my words to heart. Follow my commands, and you will live.”

Roots
1 Timothy 2:8-10 “…what I want mostly is for men to pray—not shaking angry fists at enemies but raising holy hands to God. And I want women to get in there with the men in humility before God… doing something beautiful for God and becoming beautiful doing it.” (MSG)

Open Up!
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 “Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.”

Ezekiel 37:1&3 “…I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lord to a valley filled with bones… Then he asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?” “O Sovereign Lord,” I replied, “you alone know the answer to that.” Read the rest of this entry
