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).

Read and reflect on the verses below:
“My dear brothers and sisters, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger, for human anger does not accomplish God’s righteousness.
Therefore, ridding yourselves of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent, humbly receive the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves…”
James 1:19-25 (CSB).
Are you feeling convicted right now?
I know I am.
Applying God’s word to daily living is good advice. It helps us become more like Jesus.
Today’s challenge: Pick ONE thing from these verses and apply it before the day ends.
Would you like share your challenge? What are you committing to apply right now? Mine is being too quick to speak and not listening enough.
Let’s stop just hearing the Word… and start living it.

Let’s start the day with the Lord’s Prayer. 🙏
Let pray it together reflecting on the meaning of each verse.
How old were you when you memorized this prayer?

God doesn’t change His standards and expectations to meet our desires. We can learn so much from His dealings with ancient Israel. He is a God who rewards and disciplines nations while giving them clear standards for prosperity.
“Then the Lord appeared to Solomon in the night and said to him: “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for myself as a house of sacrifice. When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence among my people, if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer that is made in this place.”
2 Chronicles 7: 12-14 (ESV).
What a powerful promise for us today!
Will you join me right now? Let’s humble ourselves, pray, seek His face, and turn from our wicked ways so that He will...
