SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY

Psalm 18:20-24     God made my life complete when I placed all the pieces before him.
When I got my act together, he gave me a fresh start.
Now I’m alert to God’s ways, I don’t take God for granted.
Every day I review the ways he works, I try not to miss a trick.
I feel put back together, and I’m watching my step.
God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.         MESSAGE

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY

 

Father, the Bible is truly a treasure.  Help me live out this truth by spending time each day reading your word and obeying it-

 

MAY YOU HAVE ENOUGH HAPPINESS TO MAKE YOU SWEET, ENOUGH TRIALS TO MAKE YOU STRONG, ENOUGH SORROW TO KEEP YOU HUMAN AND ENOUGH HOPE TO MAKE YOU HAPPY-
