“But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.” That says it all, if we do not have the Holy Spirit in ourself, we cannot understand the Word and apply it to life. I am thankful that I have the Holy Spirit so I am able to discern truth. Beautiful photos, and so appropriate to the verses.
To think that we actually have the Holy Spirit indwelling us. Wow! Thanks for your comment and have a great day.

That is an amazing reality in the life of a Christian. During the days of Job, it was rare & very special to be indwelled by the Holy Spirit….how sad that so many Christians take this incredible honor for granted today! (including yours truly far too often!!!)
Your images make those verses come alive! Beautiful post, Joy!
All for Him,
Nikki
Thank you for your sweet comment Nikki, They are such beautiful verses, but carry a serious warning to the foolish. I pray that I will have the wisdom to follow God’s will and not act like the foolish man. To God be the glory!

Ditto Nikki’s comments!
I too love this: “But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.” Job 32:8
This is such a beautiful post; the sea, the sky, and children… where the Lord can so brilliantly be seen!

Loving the scripture and photograph inspiration that you share. One of my favorites: “But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.” Job 32:8 Beautiful. Thanks for sharing and I appreciate you stopping by My Journal of Praise and liking posts. God Bless You.
Thank you Darlene. That is one of my favorites too. But then I have so many favorites, I could not write them all down because I keep discovering new ones. God is so wonderful the way He enables us to discover more and more. May you be blessed and feel His peace and joy in your life.
