#847 Carry Less - Proverbs 19

<p><strong>Proverbs 19 gives us a powerful lesson about stress, wisdom, trusting God, letting go, and learning to walk through life a little lighter. </strong></p><p><br><a href="https://a.co/d/4CYg4vG" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><br></a></p><p><strong>In this </strong><a href="https://a.co/d/4CYg4vG" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><strong>INCHSTONES</strong></a><strong> episode of </strong><em>The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas</em><strong>, we break down Proverbs 19 and one of the simplest lessons my Pops ever taught me: “Boy, the only reason you’re stressed is because you’re carrying things you weren’t designed to carry.”</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Thanks, Pops. Super helpful. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Meanwhile, I’m over here carrying tomorrow, next Tuesday, everybody else’s problems, three imaginary conversations that haven’t happened yet, and a situation God never asked me to touch.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>My Pops? Peaceful.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Why?</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Maybe because he understood something I’m still learning: God never designed us to carry everything.</strong></p><p><strong>Proverbs 19 reminds us that </strong></p><p><strong>a little with God is worth more than a lot without Him. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Desire without knowledge isn’t good. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Honesty is a superpower. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>You can’t buy relationships. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Wisdom matters. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Diligence works. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Jealousy is heavy. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Speak life. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Honor your family. </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Make good friends—and more importantly, be one.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>And yes… push-ups work too.</strong></p><p><strong>Unfortunately, you actually have to do them.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>The same goes for wisdom.</strong></p><p><strong>Seek it. Listen to it. Accept it. Apply it.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Plans are good, but purpose prevails.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Peace works when you practice it.</strong></p><p><strong>And when we stop listening to God, eventually His voice becomes harder for us to hear. It’s like turning off the faucet of knowledge and then wondering why we’re thirsty.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>God is light.</strong><br><strong>God is lov
