Welcome to Day 2765 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2765 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 104:10-23 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2765 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2765 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Domesticated Chaos – Water, Wine, and the Rhythms of Life. Today, we continue our exploration of the magnificent Psalm One Hundred Four, trekking through the middle section, verses ten through twenty-three, in the New Living Translation. In our previous trek through the opening verses of this psalm, we witnessed Yahweh as the Cosmic Architect. We saw Him robed in light, stretching out the heavens like a tent, and riding the storm clouds as His personal chariot. We saw Him rebuke the primeval chaos waters—the Tehom—driving them back with a shout of thunder to establish the dry land. That was a picture of Power and Conquest, establishing order over chaos. But today, the tone shifts from the dramatic to the domestic. Once the house is built, it must be furnished and supplied. In this section, the psalmist shows us that the very waters God rebuked in verse seven have now been tamed. They are no longer a threatening flood covering the mountains; they are now a life-giving gift flowing between the mountains. We will see God not just as the Builder, but as the Provider and the Timekeeper. He is the Host of a vibrant, teeming world where wild donkeys, nesting birds, roaring lions, and laboring humans all find their place and their portion from His hand. This is a celebration of the ecosystem of grace. So, let us walk by the quiet waters and through the green pastures of God's creation. The first segment is: The Taming of the Waters: Drink for the Wild. Psalm One Hundred Four: verses ten through twelve. You make springs pour into the ravines, so streams gush down from the mountains.  They provide water for all the animals, and the wild donkeys quench their thirst.  The birds nest beside the streams and sing among the branches of the trees. The psalmist begins by revisiting the element of water. In verses six through nine, water was a chaotic force that needed to be bounded. But now, in verse ten, God has domesticated it: "You make springs pour into the ravines, so streams gush down from the mountains." This is a profound theological statement. In the Divine Council worldview, the sea often represented hostility and death. But here, Yahweh transforms the chaotic element into a servant of life. He channels the water into "springs" (ma'yan) and "ravines" (nachal). He creates an irrigation system for the earth. And notice who the first beneficiaries are. It isn't humans. "They provide water for all the animals, and the wild donkeys quench their thirst." God cares for the "wild donkeys"...

As we close out 2025, we return to Matthew 17 in our series The King & His Kingdom. In this passage, we see three powerful truths about Jesus: the Son who suffers, the Son who is free, and the Son who provides. This sermon invites weary and anxious hearts to stop living as fearful subjects and begin resting as confident sons and daughters—trusting in our gracious King who has met our greatest need and promises to provide for all we need as we follow Him.Mission Church — www.missionlasvegas.com

Guest: Brenton Dearing | Bob Moffitt speaks with Brenton Dearing, a Certified Financial Planner, who tells the story of how he got started with financial advising, and how he's helped many people be faithful with resources. Brenton says, "When my dad died at 52, I found out they had no retirement, no life insurance, no savings. My dad had about everything that could have happened financially." That resolve had Brenton pivot to, "How do I help people deal with their dreams and wishes and then they won't experience the financial troubles my parents did". Brenton says he meets people who may never go to church; he prays for them for years, and many come into the kingdom, even if someone else invites them to accept Christ. "Believe and keep praying! God puts us in places that they can see Christ in us." Brenton says that in 32 years, "Money is one of the biggest issues around marriage. Debt denies God an opportunity to work." Brenton shares many stories about being faithful in the small things, and he says, "I share wisdom from the Bible and systems from the Bible, no matter if they know it's from the Bible or not." Brenton concludes, "The way out is to trust in God; He can be our provider." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Psalm 23 Our Guide (vv. 1-3) Provision and peace Refreshment and restoration Rightness and reason Our Comforter (v. 4) Protection Correction Redirection Our Provider (v.5) He is our generous Host We are His welcome guests Our Satisfaction (v. 6a) Goodness Mercy Our Redeemer (v. 6b) Our days Our destiny More to Consider The Lord is my shepherd. What condescension is this, that the Infinite Lord assumes towards his people the office and character of a Shepherd! It should be the subject of grateful admiration that the great God allows himself to be compared to anything which will set forth his great love and care for his own people. David had himself been a keeper of sheep, and understood both the needs of the sheep and the many cares of a shepherd. He compares himself to a creature weak, defenceless, and foolish, and he takes God to be his Provider, Preserver, Director, and, indeed, his everything. No man has a right to consider himself the Lords sheep unless his nature has been renewed, for the scriptural description of unconverted men does not picture them as sheep, but as wolves or goats. A sheep is an object of property, not a wild animal; its owner sets great store by it, and frequently it is bought with a great price. It is well to know, as certainly as David did, that we belong to the Lord. There is a noble tone of confidence about this sentence. There is no if nor but, nor even I hope so; but he says, The Lord is my shepherd. We must cultivate the spirit of assured dependence upon our heavenly Father. The sweetest word of the whole is that monosyllable, My. He does not say, The Lord is the shepherd of the world at large, and leadeth forth the multitude as his flock, but The Lord is my shepherd; if he be a Shepherd to no one else, he is a Shepherd to me; he cares for me, watches over me, and preserves me. The words are in the present tense. Whatever be the believers position, he is even now under the pastoral care of Jehovah. C. H. Spurgeon, The Treasury of David: Psalms 1-26, vol. 1 (London; Edinburgh; New York: Marshall Brothers, n.d.), 353354. The house of the Lord is the sanctuary where people worshiped. (The temple, in the Hebrew OT, is usually called beth Yahweh, the Lords house.) After his meditations, David desired to return to that holy place where he could avail himself of the blessing of Gods presence. In the Christian application of the psalm, the hope is for complete communion with the Lord in the abundance of His blessing. While popular thinking often relates this verse to heaven, the phrase in the presence of my enemies (v. 5) suggests an earthly setting, since the believers enemies are not present in heaven. Ted Cabal et al., The Apologetics Study Bible: Real Questions, Straight Answers, Stronger Faith (Nashville, TN: Holman Bible Publishers, 2007), 810811.

Because God is my Provider, I must trust Him with all my needs, leaning completely on His generous faithful provision.

In this year-end Team Teaching Weekend, Tim Smith shared how God taught him that obedience begins with the simple realization of “I can”, meeting people where they are, trusting the Holy Spirit, and walking alongside others without owning the outcome. Darin Zook followed with a message on trusting God, reflecting on a season of anxiety, pressure, and uncertainty, teaching that freedom comes when we release the weights Jesus already died to remove and trusting God as our Provider, Peace, Shepherd, and Faithful One. This message was recorded live on December 28th, 2025.

The Bible contains many stories of God's miraculous provision, but few are as rich and practical as the account of the widow's oil in 2 Kings 4:1–7. Though only seven verses long, this passage offers profound insight into how God provides for His people—and how He invites them to participate in His provision.On today's Faith & Finance, Sharon Epps, president of Kingdom Advisors, joined the program to unpack this story, one she often describes as a clear picture of “God's part and our part” in stewardship.A Crisis That Drives a Cry for HelpThe story opens with a widow in dire circumstances. Her husband, a member of the company of prophets and a man who feared the Lord, has died, leaving behind unpaid debt. With no means to repay it, she risks losing her two sons to creditors.In desperation, she cries out to the prophet Elisha for help. His response begins with a question that shapes the entire story: “What do you have in your house?”Her answer is simple and heartbreaking—nothing, except a small jar of oil.God's Part: The Source of ProvisionSharon Epps notes that God's role in this story is clear. The widow had no way to create oil, multiply it, or secure buyers for it. God alone supplied what was needed.“He was the provider of the oil,” Sharon explains, “and He also provided the buyers so the debt could be paid.” The widow's increase came entirely from God, leaving no room for self-reliance or pride.This total dependence is part of the lesson. God's provision is not something we manufacture; it is something we receive.The Widow's Part: Obedience and ActionWhile God provided the miracle, the widow was not passive. Sharon emphasizes that she played an important role.She:Asked for helpFollowed Elisha's instructionsGathered empty jarsPoured the oilSold what God multiplied“She didn't just wait for oil to appear,” Sharon notes. “She participated in the process.”This balance—God's provision paired with human faithfulness—is a pattern we see throughout Scripture.Empty Jars and Expanding FaithOne of Sharon's favorite moments in the passage comes in verse three, when Elisha tells the widow to gather empty jars from her neighbors and adds, “Don't ask for just a few.”The amount of oil multiplied was directly connected to the number of jars collected. When no vessels remained, the oil stopped flowing.Sharon describes the jars as a physical expression of faith. The widow's willingness to gather more vessels created space for God's provision.Stewardship Principles We Can Apply TodaySharon notes that God doesn't work the same miracle in every life, but the same God is always at work. From this story, she highlights several principles that still apply:1. God Is the Provider. Even our ability to work and earn comes from Him. We are always more dependent on God than we realize.2. Faithfulness Is Our Responsibility. God calls us to be faithful with what He places in front of us today—even when it feels ordinary, frustrating, or uncertain.3. Seek Wise Counsel. The widow didn't isolate herself. She sought help from the prophet, reminding us that God often provides guidance through others.4. Involve Your Family. The widow's sons helped fill the jars. Including family in financial challenges can strengthen faith and allow everyone to witness God's provision.5. Don't Bet on the Future. The widow's hardship began with unresolved debt. Sharon encourages thoughtful financial planning that considers how decisions today could affect loved ones tomorrow.Are You the Widow—or the Neighbor With Jars?Sharon also challenges listeners to view the story from a different perspective. Sometimes we are not the ones in need—we are the neighbors with empty jars.God may have already placed resources in our hands—assets, opportunities, or skills—that He wants to use to meet someone else's need.In just seven verses, the story of the widow's oil paints a powerful picture of stewardship: God provides; we respond in obedience. We rely on Him, seek wise counsel, act faithfully, and remain open to generosity.As Sharon Epps reminds us, recognizing God's role and our role brings freedom—and invites us to trust Him more fully with everything He has entrusted to us.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My 83-year-old mother just sold property and may net about $250,000 after taxes.

Tom Lawrence always knew his calling had to do with money. Growing up in Southeast London, England, Tom convinced his parents to help him get work experience in hedge funds and investment banks at the young age of twelve. But a few years into his teens, Tom had an amazing encounter with Jesus which turned his whole perspective on life upside down. His passion for money remained, but instead of feathering his own nest, Tom began to see money in the light of funding for the Kingdom.   As an adult, Tom spent about ten years as a wealth manager for private banks and wealth management organizations and his views on Kingdom finances grew and matured with him. Suddenly, Tom found himself without a job, and he soon realized that this was an opportunity to know God as Jehovah Jireh, his Provider. During this time, Tom began an intensive study of what the Bible really says about money. That journey reshaped everything—how he understands ownership, stewardship, and the call the pursue true riches.    Out of that 200 hours of Bible study, Tom founded the Biblical Financial Masterclass, a 12+ hour course that helps Christians build their financial house using God's blueprint from Scripture. Now, Tom equips Believers, churches, and organizations to heal their relationships with money and to rethink their financial lives from the heart outward, grounding principles in Scripture and pointing people towards Gospel transformation. Tune in for a fantastic dive into how God's Word radically reshapes our relationship with money.   Major Topics Include: Three dimensions of money and faith Biblical financial insights from 200 hours of study Commonly misunderstood money scriptures Developing his course Equipping to handle what God wants to give you Getting your heart right in relationship with money The Christian motivation for generosity  What is “serving Mammon?” Peeling back the layers of Mammon in our lives The truth about extravagance in giving Challenges in engaging the local church in financial conversation QUOTES TO REMEMBER “I was just as passionate about money after I got saved and it gave me a reason why I should be rather than just feathering my nest, which was my main ambition at 13 or 14. Between 15 and 17, I began to see it as an opportunity to fund the Kingdom.” “One of the greatest things that we can do is handle money that's not ours, in line with Somebody Else's will, for Somebody Else's glory in order that it would be redeemed and bring about salvation in people's lives.” “More than 10% of the entire Bible is given over to talking about money, finances, wealth, and stuff in some form of another. And about 1 in 6 of Jesus's parables touches on it.” “Do not assume you are outside of God's will just because you're going through something difficult.” “Fundamentally, the entirety of the Bible is a display of generosity. It's a love letter to humanity from God.” “How much money is too much money? It's any amount that replaces our trust in God.” “Cheerful giving comes down to heart preparation.” “When we avoid talking about money, we are not sparing our congregations awkwardness, we are leaving a gaping hole in their discipleship.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Biblical Financial Masterclass Stewardship (UK Ministry) The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Luke 16:1-13 | The Parable of the Dishonest Manager   Haggai 2: 6-7 | The Coming Glory of the Temple   For thus says the Lord of hosts: Yet once more, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land.

In this episode of The Provider Series, Christian Davis, NP, from our Charlottesville office, returns to discuss one of the most misunderstood chapters in women's health: postpartum. She explains how pregnancy elevates hormones to their peak, why estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone rapidly drop after delivery, and how this sudden shift contributes to fatigue, mood changes, anxiety, hair loss, sleep disruption, and low libido. Christian also highlights postpartum thyroid dysfunction, prolactin's impact on dopamine, the importance of nutrition, and why rest and community support are essential for recovery. Together, they break down what happens in the first 48 hours postpartum, how hormonal changes influence mood and bonding, why thyroid health affects milk supply and overall healing, and how preexisting hormone issues shape the postpartum experience. She also shares what postpartum care should look like (and why many women aren't receiving it.) Whether you're postpartum, preparing for pregnancy, or supporting someone you love, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and science-backed insight into what the body is truly going through.

The food safety watchdog is recommending better traceability of delivered meals and better management of left over food following an investigation into how mouldy rancid lunches were served to students at a Christchurch school. A report by New Zealand Food safety has found there is no wider food safety issue with the provider, the School Lunch Collective, and that the meals had likely been left at the school the week prior and mistakenly given to students. Food Safety Deputy Director-General Vincent Arbuckle spoke to Lisa Owen.

“How can you make sure that you feel as good about your face as you do about your body?” AmSpa founder Alex R.

“A week of drama” could have been avoided had the principal of a school with mouldy lunches waited for the investigation rather than going public, Associate Education Minister David Seymour says. New Zealand Food Safety said yesterday the mouldy lunches served at the Haeata Community Campus were most likely caused by an error at the school. Seymour told Newstalk ZB's Heather du Plessis-Allan the school should have “kept an open mind” so he did not have to spend a week talking about “what happened to 20 lunches”. “I guess people might start to ask themselves, ‘Look, this whole saga, it was unreasonable to have a principal who was out in the media for a week, when in reality, Food Safety New Zealand completed the assessment within 10 days, which is lightning speed for most things that happen in government'. “And if they were just open about what might have been the possibility, we could have waited till now, we could have saved a week of drama.” One of the lunches given to students at Haeata Community Campus He also said he had been told by Food Safety that the school had a policy of leaving school lunches in the cafeteria so students could have extras if they wanted, and the mouldy lunches came from there. He had been told by Food Safety that the school had a policy of leaving school lunches in the cafeteria so students could have extras if they wanted, and the mouldy lunches came from there. He said the same lunch was served on Thursday, so this seems like the most “plausible” answer. Seymour said Food Safety NZ had been all over the school and Compass “like a rash” and was confident in the result revealed yesterday. Haeata Community Campus principal Peggy Burrows did not wish to respond to Seymour's comments this morning. She previously told the Herald the findings of the school's internal investigation were with the board and the school's lawyers and were due to be released on Friday. Haeata Community Campus principal Dr Peggy Burrows. Photo / Supplied Vincent Arbuckle, deputy director-general of New Zealand Food Safety, said an investigation into the incident found that the mouldy lunches were not part of a wider food safety issue with the School Lunch Collective. “We know the issue caused a lot of concern among parents and students at the school, so we considered it important to provide accurate and independent information about the likely cause,” Arbuckle said. “After carefully examining all the possible causes, we are able to reassure parents that there is not a wider, or ongoing, food safety risk with the School Lunch Collective. “The most plausible explanation is that lunches intended to be served to students the previous week were accidentally mixed in with that day's lunches.” Burrows earlier maintained that none of its “robust” systems failed between Thursday and Monday, when the food was served. The lunches served at Haeata Community Campus were covered in a thick layer of mould. Arbuckle said New Zealand Food Safety's food compliance officers considered the possibility that the error was made by the distributor. They found it was unlikely that the distributor delivered lunches from the previous week because several other schools received the same lunch on the same day with no reported issues. Arbuckle said another reason was that the Compass Christchurch Kitchen (Central Production Kitchen) only receives the number of meals required for the following school day because of the minimal capacity of available chillers. A food poisoning warning was issued last week after several children from Haeata Community Campus ate school lunches covered in thick mould. The meals, provided as part of the Government's school lunch programme, were eaten before a teacher intervened. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fawad Butt, Co-Founder and CEO of Penguin AI,  is addressing the workflow challenges faced by healthcare payers and providers, particularly in prior authorizations and claims adjudications. These processes are inefficient and often yield inconsistent results because human reviewers interpret rules differently, and patients are denied care due to minor administrative errors.   Penguin AI is bringing consistency and speed to adjudication, breaking down data silos and handling non-clinical administrative work, enabling agents to address patient-specific problems and ensure accuracy and safety. Fawad explains, "When you look at the healthcare ecosystem, there are obviously the pharma side, the payer side, the provider side, and the PBN side. So there are lots of areas where opportunities exist. We think payers and providers are especially challenged, and I think the area where they struggle is in the administrative workflow. And these are things like prior authorization and risk adjustment, claims adjudication, and payment integrity on the payer side."   "There are things like scheduling and patient 360, or onboarding and referrals, as well as some risk adjustment for entities that are risk-bearing, and ultimately, all the functions around revenue cycle management for providers. I think the payers and providers have a tremendous amount of technology and resourcing support, but these functions have not really been what I would say reimagined in over a decade. And I think with AI, there is a real opportunity to come back and try to optimize." #PenguinAI #HealthAI #HealthcareAdministration penguinai.co Download the transcript here

Episode 1889: Mike Smerklo highlights the often-overlooked reality that choosing a capital provider is less about the money and more about the long-term relationship. He urges entrepreneurs to dig deep into who they'll actually be working with, how helpful they'll be when things go sideways, and what value they truly bring beyond the check, because that "partner" could be around far longer than you expect. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.mikesmerklo.com/how-do-great-entrepreneurs-choose-a-capital-provider-maybe-not-the-way-you-think/ Quotes to ponder: "Valuation is a single point-in-time measure but WHO you choose to take money from and HOW they will help will make that company even better." "You need to assess if the 'partner' you are talking to has enough clout to get something done within the firm."  

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Cory Ingram, M.D. There are a couple outcomes in taking a medical history. Obviously, one is information gathering. You need to hear the patient's symptoms to help form your differential diagnosis. The second, and equally important, is to help establish a relationship with that patient. There are several reasons a good provider-patient relationship is important. The patient is more likely to feel positive about their medical encounter, they're more likely to be adherent to your recommendations regarding their health conditions, and they tend to be more forgiving if they experience an adverse event. What makes up a good provider-patient relationship? What can we do as clinicians to help establish a good relationship with our patients? Can we still establish a good relationship when we practice telemedicine? These are questions I'll be asking my guest, Cory Ingram, M.D., a palliative care physician at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Provider-Patient Relationship Skills”.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.mikesmerklo.com/how-do-great-entrepreneurs-choose-a-capital-provider-maybe-not-the-way-you-think/ Quotes to ponder: "Make sure you don't get seduced by a brand or a perception here, and do your homework on how the firm has supported (or failed to support) entrepreneurs over time." "Most of the terms are frankly simple or standard and therefore don't need a lot of your attention, but a few really matter and here is where you need to be aware…be very aware."

Praise is not just a worship song or a Sunday morning routine—praise is a lifestyle. As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, Scripture tells us to “pray without ceasing,” and in the same way, we can cultivate a posture of continual praise. God gives abundantly, consistently, and generously. Even in difficult seasons, even in uncertainty, He remains the One who provides every good and perfect gift. Keneesha Saunders-Liddie reminds us that the greatest gift God ever gave was His Son. Christ came to earth, bore our sin, and secured our salvation—a gift precious beyond measure. But God’s generosity did not stop at the cross. He continues to sustain us daily with strength, breath, provision, relationships, and opportunities. James 1:17 emphasizes that God does not change. Unlike people who can be fickle or inconsistent, the Lord is steady and faithful. He does not give gifts only to take them back. He does not shift like shadows. His character is constant, and because of that, our praise should be constant too. Every blessing—big or small—flows from His good hand. Every moment of comfort, peace, joy, and strength is evidence of His loving provision. And even when we walk through trials, His presence and sustaining grace are gifts worth praising Him for. He is Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and the ultimate source of all goodness. Bible Reading:“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” – James 1:17 Takeaway Truths: God is the source of every good and perfect gift. His character is unchanging, providing stability in an unstable world. Praise is a lifestyle that grows from recognizing God’s constant provision. Let’s Pray Oh Heavenly Father, You are the giver of all good and perfect gifts. You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. What a comfort that is to my weary soul. There is evil all around. There are trials and temptations that I have to go through, but You don’t tempt believers with evil. You are the One who gives perfect gifts to Your children. You lead us through temptation, and Jesus has walked the path that we now must walk. There is no temptation that Jesus hasn’t experienced and overcome while He was here on earth. Thank You for being the giver of good gifts. My soul praises and extols Your matchless name because You are Jehovah Jireh, my Provider. You give gifts to me that are wonderful, and even when I have to walk through trials, Your constant presence is there with me. You are unchanging, O God, so that I can depend on You. I will continue to praise and magnify You, O Lord. Let my praises always be on the tip of my tongue. I praise You with my body, with my finances, with my lifestyle, and with everything that You have blessed me with. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
