Purity - Week Sixteen

Essential Eight




THIS WEEK'S ASSIGNMENT: READ CHAPTER FIFTEEN IN YOUR BOOK,
 STUDY IT, & SHARE YOUR GLEANINGS!)
"That they may teach the young women... to love be chaste." Titus 2:4-5

"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." Matthew 5:8
Hello friends! I hope your study of Wisdom was inspiring and eye-opening. If you feel like I do, you are probably wanting to study wisdom deeper and more in depth. :) But for now let's go on to our next essential - purity. When I think of purity being separate from the world and set apart for God comes to my mind. What comes to your mind?

The marks of wisdom:
     1. Know your priorities and practice them
     2. Balance in every area of life
     3. Farsighted
     4. Work at wisdom
     5. Practice the seven steps of wisdom
               (Stop, Wait, Pray, Search, Ask, Decide, Plan)

I came across this quote by Leslie Ludy that went along perfectly with last week's study. Just have to share it with you all :)

"The only way to walk in the wisdom of God is to abide in Him daily,
and build our lives around Him. God's wisdom isn't what comes naturally to us - we must know Him in order to know and understand His pattern for our lives."
 
 
May you continue to seek the Lord and His strength today and always!
 
Love, Nicole
