Greetings,
One of our prayers should be that God will never have cause to count us among the wicked. We should seek God with sincerity rather than deny His existence.
“Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!
The Lord looks down from heaven on the entire human race; he looks to see if anyone is truly wise, if anyone seeks God.
But no, all have turned away; all have become corrupt. No one does good, not a single one!
Will those who do evil never learn? They eat up my people like bread and wouldn’t think of praying to the Lord.
Terror will grip them, for God is with those who obey him.
The wicked frustrate the plans of the oppressed, but the Lord will protect his people.
Who will come from Mount Zion to rescue Israel? When the Lord restores his people,
Jacob will shout with joy, and Israel will rejoice.”
Psalm 14: 1-7 (NLT).
How many of you need extra peace today?
Jesus is with us now and forever.
He will never leave nor forsake us.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11: 28-30 (NIV). #Bible #Peace #Rest #meditation

Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”
