Guarding Understanding

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

 Our message for March is, "Resetting Our Understanding," and we talked about how the Holy Spirit helps us understand all that God has given us in Christ. 

Several years ago, God showed me that I needed to understand his grace... that he is doing continually good for us all the time, even when we miss it.

During this time Proverbs 19:8 came to life for me which says, "The one who gets wisdom loves life; the one who cherishes understanding will soon prosper."

But what does it mean to "cherish," understanding? 

The word used for "cherish," is the Hebrew word "shamar," which is the same word used in Genesis 2:15 when it says, "The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep(shamar) it. 

Shamar means to keep, protect, watch, guard, hedge in, to treasure, and to cherish. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us "shamar," understanding the way he desires. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Two ways to "shamar," your physical body are:

1) Keep your mind positioned in gratitude.

2) Keep improving your mobility and ability to move like a kid. 

I am praying for you.

P.S. Remember the Master is with you, he loves you, and nothing is impossible for him.
