My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion; they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble. When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the Lord will be at your side and will keep your foot from being snared.
Proverbs 3:21-26 (NIV).
Blessings,
Jacquie ♥

Hello Jacquie! I haven’t dropped by your blog in awhile. Today I decided I need to click “follow” so I can see your posts when you add to your blog. You wrote, “I’m in a place where writing my own words isn’t happening.” The use of scripture at a time like this is so appropriate. But I will pray that God speaks to your heart and you once again find your own words to augment His message. You do that beautifully in your heartfelt comments to your readers. I know He wants you to do it on your blog, too. God bless you, Jacquie. Bee well! ❤ Let your heart speak! ❤
