Psalm 1:1-3

1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor standeth in the way of sinners,
Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:

2But his delight is in the law of Jehovah;
And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

3And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water,
That bringeth forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also doth not wither;
And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

In the 1st verse of this chapter it says blessed is the man who does not stand in the way of sinners. Some time Christians are so self righteous that they are in the way of sinners coming to Christ. Don't stand in the way today. To be a christian is to be Christ like and He is merciful and compassionate to everyone He shows grace and we need to do the same. There is enough criticism in the world lets give words of hope.

Psalm 23

1The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside still waters.

3He restoreth my soul:
He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death,
I will fear no evil; for thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine
enemies:
Thou hast anointed my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.

6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all
the days of my life;
And I shall dwell in the house of The Lord for ever.


Like a shepherd the Lord cares for me He is leading and guiding me even in the darkest of times. That is how great His Mercy is toward me. What a wonderful Savior I have.

Psalms 86:1-7

1Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me;
For I am poor and needy.

2Preserve my soul; for I am godly:
O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

3Be merciful unto me, O Lord;
For unto thee do I cry all the day long.

4Rejoice the soul of thy servant;
For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

5For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive,
And abundant in lovingkindness unto all them that call upon thee.

6Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer;
And hearken unto the voice of my supplications.

7In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee;
For thou wilt answer me.


I am so thankful to the Lord that He hears and answers, sometimes it is in a way that we may not even have thought but He answers. I had an experience yesterday where He did just that. My daughter, two of her friends and my best friend broke down on the interstate in Atlanta, Georgia in 100 degree heat and I was 3 hours from home. I prayed that someone would stop to help and they did. A man and his girlfriend  were on a motorcycle and stopped to help us. He went and got his truck and pulled me to a safe area and then unlocked a local business that was unoccupied and allowed us to stay there out of the heat until our help arrived. I am glad and Praise God for this mans kindness to me and my friends and family. I pray that the Lord will bless him and his girlfriend. God is always near to us and he will answer in time of trouble.
