WHEN HAPPY COMES HOME

Walking in Wisdom - Part 3

Pastor Holly Young

 

Through wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures. (Proverbs 24:3-4)

 

KEYS TO CREATING HAPPINESS AT HOME

 

1. Prioritize What Is Important (Truly Important)

Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasure with trouble. (Proverbs 15:16 ESV)

Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a fatted ox with hatred. (Proverbs 15:17 ESV)

2.  Let Love Lead 

Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends. (Proverbs 17:9 NLT)

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. (Proverbs 3:3-4)

3. Don’t Despise Discipline 

Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you punish them with the rod, they will not die. (Proverbs 23:13)

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid.

(Proverbs 12:1 NIV)
