Several times I have parked in the same “visitor spaces” at my son’s apartment downtown. They appeared to be safe even for Atlanta. Until… my<\/i> car window was smashed, damaging my door and several things were stolen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I stood staring at the green\/blue safty-glass crumbled all over the ground. Where had I seen that before?? It dawned on me, in that very area only weeks ago. Never had I considered it be from a car window! …Now it had happened to me.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Interestingly Warning Signals, are usually right in front of us, but they don’t always come with large letters. This time it had. There were signs posted NOT to leave any valuables in plain sight. Oh. It happens all the time – obvious alerts right there, yet we fail to see. Or maybe think, “That won’t happen to me.”<\/p>\n

Apply your heart to instruction\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/em>and your ear to words of knowledge.<\/strong><\/em> Proverbs 23:12<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bible is full of warnings,<\/i>\u00a0Proverbs has page after page. God had Solomon put them all down to guide me to a better and more fulfilling life… an abundant life. <\/em>This is why I read and study all of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation<\/strong>. I want to beware and be wise.<\/p>\n

You make known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence,\u00a0with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.<\/strong><\/em> Psalm 16:11<\/p>\n

It is in God’s Word that I’ve learned how to live. Things like:\u00a0going to bed angry will cause things to fester<\/em> – running with wise people will bring me wisdom<\/em> – hanging out with fools will lead to disaster<\/em> – doing good in the face of evil is pleasing to God<\/em>… and most amazing of all, Salvation comes by faith alone<\/em><\/strong>. Verse after verse His treasure is unending.<\/p>\n

How I love all<\/em> of God’s Message and His warning signals!<\/em><\/p>\n

“Lord, help me to run with the wise and be wise. Help me see signs You’ve placed in my path- using wisdom and heeding warnings. Thank You again for Your rich, encouraging, generation-defying Word.”<\/i><\/p>\n
