So I am reading Stormie Omaritan's book Light for the Step I'm On. Its a pretty easy to read and although I don't agree with everything she has written, I have been inspired to "test all things" as my mother would say. I am hoping that she will be a guest blogger one day, and expand on the story behind "test all things".
It is very hard when your character your character is defamed, your integrity is attacked, and your motives are questioned. David, the Psalmist, experienced all of these things. His son, Solomon, wrote about them. The verses below are so relevant to this day and I will ponder them as I sew many more things for my momma!
Proverbs 3:21-26
New International Version (NIV)
21 My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight,
preserve sound judgment and discretion;
22 they will be life for you,
an ornament to grace your neck.
23 Then you will go on your way in safety,
and your foot will not stumble.
24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
25 Have no fear of sudden disaster
or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,
26 for the Lord will be at your side
and will keep your foot from being snared.

or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,
