Today's Thoughts

Acts 2:27-28 "I saw God before me for all time. Nothing can shake me, he's right by my side. I'm glad from the inside out, ecstatic; I've pitched my tent in the land of hope. I know you'll never dump me in Hades. I'll never even smell the stench of death. You've got my feet on the life-path, iwth your face shining sun-joy all around." The hope of easter! May I live like nothing can shake me and live with the joy/gladness that comes from the inside out at all times, not just when it is easy.

Psalm 2:12 "His anger is about to explode, but if you make a run for God - you won't regret it." God, allow me to always run to you with everything, good and bad, big and small. May your desires reign in my life, not my own.

Proverbs 2:6-8 "And here's why: God gives out Wisdom free, is plainspoken in Knowledge & Understanding. He's a rich mine of Common Sense for those who live well, a personal bodyguard to the candid and sincere. He keeps a close eye on all who live honestly, and pays special attention to his loyally committed ones." Lord, help me to strive to live well, be candid & sincere, live honestly, and be loyally committed. It's so easy to follow my ways and not yours. Thank you for your promises in your word, and provide we with Wisdom, Knowledge, Common Sense, and Understanding as I continue to dig into your word. Allow me to live your life through me.

Proverbs 2:21 "It's the men who walk straight who will settle this land, the women with integrity who will last here." Lord, help me walk straight. Allow me to put to rest my selfish desires of acceptance, poplularity, status, etc. and allow me to walk how you would have me walk. Allow me to be the father, husband, son, friend, brother, leader, and worker that you want me to be. Thank you for all the blessings that you have provided me, and continue to provide. Even though we may think of blessings financially, Lord, you've given me so many more that are worth so much more than any amount of money, and I thank you for that. Move in my lfie, be alive in my life, so that people can't help but see you instead of seeing me, not for my glory, but for your own. Thank you for the wonderful gift of your Son and for the fact that we have hope because He defeated death. You were risen on the third day, and you are still alive today. Thank you and I love you. Amen
