Growing in Christ: Verses from Jamie
During this year’s Ladies’ Day, many women shared their thoughts on growing in Christ. Here are verses that Jamie shared:
Psalm 1
Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
Proverbs 3:13-18
Blessed is the man who finds wisdom,
the man who gains understanding,
for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold
She is more precious than rubies:
nothing you desire can compare with her.
Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.
She is a tree of life to those who embrace her;
those who lay hold of her will be blessed.
Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
and he who wins souls is wise.
Proverbs 18:20
From the fruit of his mouth a man’s stomach is filled;
with the harvest from his lips he is satisfied.
