Understanding 3

My shepherds have an understanding that none will be left behind

As it is with mankind all knowledge can be gained but must be refined

What is a simple thought today will grow immensely when watered by My word

Think of new ways to enrich the family and help it grow and move forward

Understanding will clarify your thoughts and cement a path to follow

Be careful what words you use to define yourself and others, make sure they are not hollow

It is with understanding that you must welcome the lost that need a hand up

Feed them the food of life slowly and continue to invite them over to sup

Walk beside them and show them the path to salvation one step at a time

Slowly their understanding will grow to match their stride and they will be fine

As My shepherds you must keep an eye on all the sheep to make sure none wander

Some of the ways of heaven are hard to understand and occasionally they will ponder

The what ifs of life and how to incorporate them with understanding into their life

Patience is required to help the lost overcome the enemy and cast off strife

Use all your understanding to define the individual needs of every soul

Freedom to worship and celebrate without fear must be your final goal

(Psa 49:3 NRSV)  My mouth shall speak wisdom; the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.

(Prov 2:1 – 6 NRSV) 1 – My child, if you accept my words and treasure up my commandments within you, 2 – making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; 3 – if you indeed cry out for insight, and raise your voice for understanding; 4 – if you seek it like silver, and search for it as for hidden treasures—

5 – then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. 6 – For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;

(Jer 3:15 NRSV)  I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.

(Jer 10:12 NRSV)  It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.

(Phil 4:7 NRSV)  And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

(1 John 5:20 NRSV)  And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
