		<description><![CDATA[“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.” (Isaiah 55:8 ESV)

		<description><![CDATA[How many times could we avoid driving wedges into relationships if we would just heed Scripture’s warnings?

The need to explain ourselves, defend ourselves, protect our positions, cover our bases, etc., too often causes our mouths to open in ways that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“In all circumstances take up the shield of faith,,,” Paul, a student of the Old Testament, reminds us of the need for a shield.  Ephesians 6:16  is the only direct mention of a shield in the New Testament, but numerous references regarding the shield fill the Old Testament.

As for purpose, Proverbs is written so that the reader may “know wisdom and instruction” and “understand words of insight.” [...]]]></description>

From Isaiah 41:10 and following, and Isaiah 43, we are reminded that fear is not necessary because God is with us; we don’t have to hold on to anxiety because He is our God, He will strengthen us, He will help us, He [...]]]></description>
