Good morning ☀️🌞
I struggled today at finding the “right” translation of the verse below. I resorted to the King James Version. The scriptures make the point that we all stumble at times, but God does not cast us away. He continues to love us and is always waiting with open arms. That, my friends, is good news for us sinners.
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the Lord upholdeth him with His hand.” Psalm 37: 23-24 (KJV).

Greetings 👋
Here’s a sobering warning.
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.” Isaiah 5:20-21 (NIV).
Greetings 👋
Here’s more of Psalm 34. Let’s get these words deep into our hearts and minds.
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are attentive to their cry; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth.
The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; he protects all his bones,
not one of them will be broken.
Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned. The Lord will rescue his servants; no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.”
Psalm 34: 15-22 (NIV).
