Live and see!

Wow!  After just 2 days of our homework, I can tell this is going to be challenging.   Yesterday, when I read the part in our study about "wait and see" or "live and see",   It hit me hard.   I love that statement!! How many times do we say, "well, I am just going to "wait and see" what happens.  We sit and wait, but nothing changes!
This morning, I read Proverbs 2:

My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you,
 2making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; 3 yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, 4 if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, 5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. 6 For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; 7 he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity.

These verses don't sound like someone who has a "wait and see" attitude.   It is a "if" you do this, "then"!   I don't want to sit and wait.   I want to walk out my faith.   I will inevitably make some mistakes along the way, will have to refocus, but if I am moving forward, progress is made.  I have a part to play!   

God everyday, help me to Live and See! 

Ruth
