Reflections on Proverbs 19-20

Reading: Proverbs 19-20 5  Every word of God  is  pure; He  is  a shield to those who put their trust in Him. - Proverbs 20 Remembering all that HE has promised me will put my fears to rest for GOD can never lie because HE cannot deny HIMSELF. HE is true to HIS words, it is HIS very nature to deliver HIS every promise. My heart will be secure when I learn to rest in HIS words and keep them in the remembrance of my heart.  Sometimes I fret and when I can't control my fears I start to panic. The voices tell me I'm a failure, I don't amount to anything, and I'm nothing. These voices echo so loud in my brains. I want to shut them down, they are not worth hearing. Not worth thinking, because I know I'm worth more than what I can do. I am worth the love of GOD. And so to listen to HIS voice is a difficult and challenging endeavor . For HE cannot be heard in the loudness and glory of sound but in the stillness of the heart, there HIS voice is but small....1 Kings 19

Where do I belong?

Ever since I was a child, I've been everyone's friend but nobody else's clique member. I try to avoid the hostile kids and made friends with the good ones. I was mostly known as everyone's friend, smiling and agreeable. Today, an organization that interviewed me had described me as agreeable, it's nice that I've not changed and she also added "humble". For me this is an accomplishment for others to find me humble is a great thing. Why? because pride is a thing that brings people down even when they try to set themselves as high as the sky. But looking at all the facebook friends and seeing pictures of old friends come together and continue meeting, made me realize that I've not really rooted myself in group relationships. I think because my family bond is so strong I know I don't need to belong, I have a group that holds me deep down where I will always be known to parents as their beloved daughter and the eldest Sister of 4 doting siblings.
