Snow in summer - is that you? Proverbs 25

Good morning all! God is good all the time, all the time God is good!  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

   Take time to read Proverbs 25, which are from Hezekiah's advisors.  King Hezekiah's father, Ahaz, was not a godly man, he even nailed the Temple door shut.  Hezekiah restored the Temple, destroyed idol worship centers, and earned the respect of surrounding nations, many of whom brought gifts to God because of him.
    Hezekiah had these proverbs copied and read, for  "in all that he did in the service of the Temple of God and in his efforts to follow God's laws and commands, Hezekiah sought his God wholeheartedly.  As a result, he was very successful." (2 Chronicles 31:21)
    Here is a verse to take into the weekend with you.  Proverbs 25:13 "Trustworthy messengers refresh like snow in summer. They revive the spirit of their employer." 
   It is often difficult to find people you can really trust.  Faithful employees (trustworthy messengers) are punctual, responsible, honest and hardworking.  Such people are invaluable as they help take some of the pressure off their employer.  Find out what your employer needs from you to make his or her job easier, and do it.
    Also, remember, you are "under the employee of Jesus Christ."  Relate this to working for God.  Are you refreshing, or the dreaded cloud that creates concern but yields nothing?  Today is your summer snow day - now go and share it with someone. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
