Verse of The Day: July 13, 2017

Good morning!

Whenever I come across a familiar verse like this one, I like to look at a few different translations to give myself more to meditate on:

Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts. Proverbs 21:2 KJV

People may be right in their own eyes, but the Lord examines their heart. Proverbs 21:2 NLT

We justify our actions by appearances; God examines our motives. Proverbs 21:2 MSG

You may think that everything you do is right, but remember that the Lord judges your motives. Proverbs 21:2 GNT

There are several more translations, but just those 4 can give us a lot for our hearts to consider!

Prayer for Today

Teach me, O LORD, to follow your decrees; then I will keep them to the end. Give me understanding, and I will keep your law and obey it with all my heart. Direct me in the path of your commands, for there I find delight. Turn my heart toward your statutes and not toward selfish gain . Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to your word. Fulfill your promise to your servant, so that you may be feared. Take away the disgrace I dread, for your laws are good. How I long for your precepts! Preserve my life in your righteousness. Amen.
