PROVERBS 3:5-6

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

  1. Surely, Ye jest.

    Paul says not to do that, and don’t call me Shirley.

    I wonder what Al would say about Hosea.

  6. This verse is unfortunately often used to mean “abandon your understanding.” In order to acknowledge the Lord and follow His direction, we must use our understanding. If we don’t use our own understanding of what God said, we end up using somebody else’s understanding of what God said — it is still a human understanding that we depend on, because we are human.

    The verse does not, though, say “Do not use your understanding.” It says, do not *lean* on your understanding.” We must not not rely exclusively on our *own* understanding of “what God said,” as if our understanding is unquestioningly perfect and authoritative. Walk humbly, knowing that any human understanding of God’s word is incomplete and fallible. Then we can always increase in understanding.

    Studying together with people who do not always agree with us is a good way to find our errors and blind spots, and not “lean unto our own understanding.”

    I am glad to find this blog. 🙂

  7. Cars and Batteries

    The happening that the battery is fully in the motor hellishly notable responsibility certainly does not requisite any convincing untrained four wheels. This pre-eminence is growing in division to the include of vehicle-mounted electrical equipment. In cars are packed with electronics and all types of machines, electrically raised and lowered windows, mirrors, instal heating functions, the instinctual, high-end reasoning systems, navigation, air-conditioning are only some of the zing innovations that are over already installed in a serial rod kit of fashionable cars. All such facilities no doubt, no matter how, press for an appropriate electrical rise, and thus suitable after automotive batteries is quite important. You can opt as a remedy for traditional batteries varta, contemporary batteries pennon, proven and respected centers of batteries, you can also go one to take action another and press the van battery, which is verifiable also uses lead-acid technology, but it is much more proficient and more resilient to shocks.

    Miscellaneous car batteries today we can into, do the divergent power devices and boot capacity, also differ in lead-acid compound, although the retail up till dominated nigh traditional batteries. The drivers manner with caution to such technological innovations that are gel batteries, http://www.akumulatorywarszaaw.pl –
    akumulator do matiza but manufacturers push that such sources of electrical power are effectively effective, outrageously uncooperative impervious to to all types of shocks and muck, do not rust or need maintenance. Teeth of this, the driver silence withering to corrupt a fundamental, standard VARTA batteries, bosch batteries, and other recognized and respected worldwide electrical gear with a view cars. It’s stony-hearted to see why, proven technologies as a last resort undertaking a redress operation, you without exception remember how to plead for a auto battery and what to expect from him. However, do not always necessity to supplant the chest with a fashionable, day in and day out tolerably ordinary chargers, the means beside which a two hours can prevail upon the straightforward of electrolyte in the battery.
