1 Cor. 6:12 "All things are lawful for me, but not ll things are helpful."

 We would all be better off if we remembered this more often. As the creed says, "He made all things for us men, and our salvation." Under grace, we're allowed to do whatever we want! Just be careful, because not everything is good for us. Like, juggling chainsaws, or playing in traffic. Some things are simply bad ideas. Fortunatey, The Holy Spirit is our perfect helper and guide. If we stick with Him, everything will be fine. If you enjoyed that, check out my Substack, vwilderness.substack.com  And then, tell your friends!

Numbers 6:24-26 "The Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord Make His face to shine upon you, and give you peace."

 This was the blessing spelled out for Moses, just before the children of Israel entered the promised land. Right after this, God said he'd put His name on them, and bless them. As a believer, you're grafted in! It's how God wants to bless you. Just accept Him, and live like it, And the Lord's face will shine on you.         If you enjoyed that, check out my Substack, @voiceinthewildernes1. And then, tell your friends!

Genisis 1:31 "God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good."

 A Hebew understanding of good is more than just correct, or appropriate. It means synchronized, like clockwork, with every little piece making every other piece work better. And if that's just good (Heb. tov) which is what He said about each part, how perfect His finished creation must be! And you're a part of that. So, it's obviously very good.  If you enjoyed that, check out my Substack, @voiceinthewilderness1.And then, tell your friends!

Ecc. 7:28 "God has made man, but man looks for many devices."

 That could just as well say, "Man looks for anything better." But that's not possible. God is good, in every possible sense. He doesn't just do good things, God  is  goodness itself. That might be confusing, but every good thing comes from God, every good thing happens because of God. So, by lining ourselves up with the way God does stuff, that translates to maximum good things!  If you enjoyrd that, check out my Substack, @voiceinthewilderness1. And then, tell your friends!
