3 

3 Trust the Lord and do good.
    Live in the land and feed on truth.
4 4 Enjoy serving the Lord,
    And he will give you what you want.
5 5 Depend on the Lord;
    Trust him, and he will take care of you.
6 6 Then your goodness will shine like the sun,
    And your fairness like the noonday sun.

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, I pray for a discerning spirit to help me recognize truth from falsehood. Help me to know when others are lying and help me also to recognize the lies I tell myself. You always speak the truth and You declare that which is right from that which is wrong.  When the world describes a lifestyle or belief system to be good when You declare it to be evil, help me to stand firm upon Your holy truths as I faithfully read them in the Scriptures. Give me bold conviction to stand firm for truth even when it seems as though no one stands with me. The “truths” as purported by this world shift like the changing winds but Your Truth stands for all eternity!  I stand firm as I tighten the belt of truth about me. And I protect my heart and mind with the shield of righteousness through Christ Jesus my Lord in whose name I pray. Amen.

 

 

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING!
