The Word of God for wisdom:
Proverbs 28:2 (ESV)
2 When a land transgresses, it has many rulers, but with a man of understanding and knowledge, its stability will long continue.
The Word of God for inspiration:
Psalm 118:1 (ESV)
1 Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!
The Word of God for encouragement:
James 1:2-4 (ESV)
2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds,
3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.
4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
Job 6:14 (HCSB)
14 A despairing man should receive loyalty from his friends, even if he abandons the fear of the Almighty.
Colossians 3:12 (ESV)
12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,
My observation:
I have been meditating on these scriptures this morning. When I read them these words lingered with me; maturity, friendship, fellowship, and sympathy.
You have to be a mature believer to have the level friendship, fellowship and sympathy that are in view in Job and Colossians.
My prayer:
Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I ask that you form in me all that I need to exhibit the love of God to others. Father, help me to love and care for others in the same manner that you love and care for me. In Jesus name, Amen.

Isaiah 55:11 (HCSB)
11 so My word that comes from My mouth will not return to Me empty, but it will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I send it ⌊to do⌋."
