The Word of God for wisdom:
Proverbs 14:33 (NLT)
33 Wisdom is enshrined in an understanding heart; wisdom is not found among fools.
The Word of God for inspiration:
Psalm 106:13-15 (NLT)
13 Yet how quickly they forgot what he had done! They wouldn't wait for his counsel!
14 In the wilderness their desires ran wild, testing God's patience in that dry wasteland.
15 So he gave them what they asked for, but he sent a plague along with it.
The Word of God for encouragement:
John 6:16-20 (HCSB)
16 When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
17 got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. Darkness had already set in, but Jesus had not yet come to them.
18 Then a high wind arose, and the sea began to churn.
19 After they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea. He was coming near the boat, and they were afraid.
20 But He said to them, "It is I. Don't be afraid!"
My observation:
When you are following Jesus, and doing what the word says to do, you don't have to fear when troubles come into your life. When strong winds blow, and the sea of trouble rages, look to Jesus, and hear his calming voice say, "It is I. Don't be afraid".
My prayer:
Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I am so blessed to know that you watch over your people. Knowing this gives me a peace in the midst of the storms of life.
Father God, I thank you for being my anchor in the time of storms, and for being my rock when life gets difficult, and too heavy for my shoulders to bear.
Father God, thank you for being all that I need in every situation I have faced in the past, and every situation I will face in the future. In Jesus name, Amen.

1 Timothy 4:4-5 (HCSB)
4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing should be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
5 since it is sanctified by the word of God and by prayer.
