Psalm 16 : 1-9
KJV


1 Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2 O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord,
Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
3 But to the saints that are in the earth,
and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that
hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood
will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance
and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places;
yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7 I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel:
my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
8 I have set the Lord always before me:
because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth:
my flesh also shall rest in hope.



Today's Prayer...


Dear Father in heaven,

How shall we thank You for all You give to us,
Your children, for the great wisdom and power
You hold in readiness for us if we are childlike?
We want to be glad in Your presence.
We do not want to weep and complain,
though tears often threaten to come.
We simply want to ask You to protect us,
Your children.
Protect all Your children on earth.
Let the pain that breaks over them be taken away,
for the sake of the whole world.
Even when we must follow a hard road,
let all the suffering we endure become part
of the fight that brings in the kingdom of heaven,
bringing Your purpose to the earth and
great mercy to the peoples,
bringing to all the world the wonderful forgiveness
that enables men to be reborn,
until at last all are called Your children.
Sustain us. Help us. Bless us.
May the Savior always live among us,
reviving and strengthening us in body and soul."


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
