VERSE FOR TODAY: You who are simple, gain prudence; you who are foolish, gain understanding. . . To the discerning all of them are right; they are faultless to those who have knowledge (Proverb 8:5,9, New International Version).
HYMN FOR TODAY: "there's a Light"
You can have the Treasure! From the beginning of time there have been people who believe in God. People who trust His ultimate power, authority, goodness, mercy, wisdom, justice, and who trust Him in spite of the wickedness in the world.
Let's follow the guidelines found in Matthew 7 and live a godly and peaceful life.
First, conduct toward others:
Relieve oneself of judgement of neighbors, Christian brothers, and family members. Let God do the moulding and judging. The goal of each Christian is to build faith in God and to develop the character and Strength that comes from commitment to Him.
Second, relationship with God:
Ask. . . Seek. . . Knock. An increasing urgency in the desire to know God and His ways brings peace and confidence to life. Seek Him with the desperation a starving man looks for food. He will open His heart and pour a blessing upon blessing on those who seek His face.
Third, the difficulty of the road:
The Lord calls us to the straight way. We dare not take the broad way- it leads to destruction. The road is made easy because He lift us up. He is our Guide!
PRAYER THOUGHTS: Precious Guide, our heavenly Father, strengthen our desire to follow You today. Give us the wisdom to let You lead the way. In the name of Jesus Christ, our Savior, we pray. Amen.
