My Take

DiVoran Lites

Proverbs:21-24

The lovers of God who chase after righteousness will find all their dreams come true: an abundant life drenched with favor and a fountain that overflows with satisfaction.

A warrior filled with wisdom ascends into the high place and releases regional breakthroughs, bringing down the strongholds of the mighty!

Watch your words and be careful what you say; you’ll be surprised how few troubles you’ll have today. 

Amen

DiVoran has been writing for most of her life. Her first attempt at a story was when she was seven years old and her mother got a new typewriter. DiVoran got to use it and when her dad saw her writing he asked what she was writing about. DiVoran answered that she was writing the story of her life. Her dad’s only comment was, “Well, it’s going to be a very short story.” After most of a lifetime of writing and helping other writers, DiVoran finally launched her own dream which was to write a novel of her own. She now has her Florida Springs trilogy and her novel, a Christian Western Romance, Go West available on Amazon. When speaking about her road to publication, she gives thanks to the Lord for all the people who helped her grow and learn.  She says, “I could never have done it by myself, but when I got going everything fell beautifully into place, and I was glad I had started on my dream.”

Proverbs: Wisdom in the Beginning

16 Jul

My Take

DiVoran Lites

Proverbs 8:22-30

I was there initially, for God possessed me before he created the universe.

From eternity past, I was set in place before the world began.

I was anointed from the beginning.

Before the ocean depths were poured out and glorious fountains overflowed with water, I was there, dancing!

Even before one mountain had been sculpted or one hill was raised, I was dancing! When he created the earth, the fields, even the first atom of dust, I was already there.

When he hung the tapestry of the heavens and stretched out the earth’s horizon when the clouds and skies were set in place, the subterranean fountains began to flow strong. I was already there.

Healing Words

8 Jul

My Take

DiVoran Lites

Proverbs 5:20-24

Listen carefully, my dear child, to everything I teach you.

And pay attention to everything I have to say.

Fill your thoughts with my words until they penetrate deep into your spirit.

Then, as you unwrap my words until they penetrate deep into your spirit, they will impart true life and radiant health into the very core of your being.

So, above all, guard the affections of your heart, for they affect all that you are.

Pay attention to the welfare of your innermost being. For from there flows the wellspring of life.

Wisdom is a Gift

24 Jun

My Take

DiVoran Lites

Proverbs 2:8-9  

Wisdom is a gift from a generous God; every word he speaks is full of revelation and becomes a fountain of understanding within you.

The Lord has a hidden storehouse of wisdom accessible to his godly lovers. He becomes your bodyguard as you follow his ways, protecting and guarding you as you choose what is right. 

Then, you will do everything properly and fairly and be empowered to make the right decisions as you walk into your destiny.

Rest Unafraid

17 Jun

My Take

DiVoran Lites

Proverbs 1:33

But the one who always listens to me will live undisturbed in a heavenly peace,

Free from fear, confident, and courageous, you will rest unafraid and sheltered during the storms of life.

Suddenly I Am All Pink and Lavender

21 Jan

I have been making graphics for Social Media with verses from Proverbs. I have enjoyed pairing photos we have taken with a Proverb and sharing the story behind the pictures on the other site I manage, Rebekah Lyn Books.

This picture was taken on Christmas Day on the Merritt Island Wild Life Refuge. For some odd reason this week I am gravitating toward pinks and lavender backgrounds.

It will be interesting to see if this phase continues or if I go back to photographs. Wasn’t there a famous painter who was known for his color phases?
