“The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.” Proverbs 27:7-9 (KJB)

Jesus Speaks – Christmas Day One Hundred Ninety and Six
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.” Matthew 5:5 (KJV)
With pride, arrogance, and power being the perfume of the culture we live in this verse stands in stark contrast to the rest of the world.
What do I want for Christmas?
I want to have a deeper understanding of meekness; the meekness of which Jesus speaks; and to have that in me; I want to see more fully that meekness is not weakness, but strength under control, and I want the kingdom of Jesus Christ in this world to practice it.
Pride, arrogance and power are a stench in the nostrils of holy GOD.
