“My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.” – Psalm 7:10
 
A Hebrew poet found peace of mind by putting his trust in God who saves those who are honest and trustworthy. I wouldn’t worship a God who would save people who are dishonest, selfish, and greedy. But I would worship a God who would save people who repent their dishonesty, selfishness, and greed. God brings arrogant people down but God raises humble people up.
 
Today’s prayer:
Dear Lord, we know that we are not perfect. And yet, you accept us as we are. Help us to grow in wisdom and in love. Amen
 
1.    When I do good I feel good, when I do bad I feel bad, and that’s my religion.     – Abraham Lincoln
2.    The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.   – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
  3.    Keep your face to the sun and you cannot see a shadow. – Helen Keller
