As I read today’s proverb I hear about staying humble and receiving Gods correction to be wise as opposed to rejecting it and going down the path of fools. This reaches my heart today as I will be having my first peer review to evaluate my teaching and give me feedback on how to improve. I have asked God for humility today as I am being watched and when I hear the feedback not take it personally but see where I can do better.

Proverbs 10 today and the Holy Spirit guided me to do a deeper dive into the word Iniquity. Here is what I found: The word iniquity in the Bible means deep moral crookedness — not just doing wrong once in a while, but having a bent heart or twisted character that continually leans toward sin. - In Hebrew, the word is ʿāwon (עָוֹן), meaning perversity, depravity, guilt, or moral distortion. - It’s related to the idea of something bent out of shape — like a twisted beam that can’t stand straight. So while sin often refers to missing the mark (like an arrow that misses the target), and transgression means rebellion(breaking a rule or boundary), iniquity describes the inner corruption that produces those outward actions There is always so much more for me to understand as opposed to just reading a word and thinking I understand.

🛠 As a mechanic, one thing I’ve learned over decades of repairing and rebuilding many different things is this: Every piece of equipment was designed by a creator who knows more than I do about how it works. When I get stuck, I reach for the manual or the engineer’s notes — because the one who made it understands it best. Life is no different. For years I tried to be “my own man,” relying on my experience, my knowledge, my grit. It always left me struggling and, if I’m honest, heading toward destruction. When I finally stopped trying to do it all myself and put my faith in Jesus Christ, everything changed. The peace that “passes all understanding” that the Bible talks about? It’s real. It’s steady. It’s been my anchor ever since. If you’re searching for answers, direction, or peace in your own life, let me gently ask: Who are you turning to? The Creator knows His creation better than anyone — and that includes you!
