Trust

       in the LORD,

   and do good.

Dwell in the land

   and you shall be fed.

Delight yourself in the LORD,

and He will give you

    the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the LORD,

trust in Him,

             and He will act.

                   Psalm 37. 3-5

(How do we approach

                      and navigate

   this difficulty or opportunity?

Trust in God, do good,

delight in the LORD,

commit our way,

trust in Him

             --do those things,

               be that kind of person,

       instead.

We could have done this or that,

    but we chose

            something else.

Because we trust in Him,

how do we live differently

in hardship,

in our relationships,

in what we do and say,

             even in favor?

How does this choice

   change what we pursue,

and thereby alter

        the course of our lives

and those all around us?)

Love you deep and wide.

Praying for you

     as you live before the LORD.

O LORD,

Help us keep our eyes on You,

trust You in our daily choices,

and be faithful to You,

               even in this.

May we dwell in You

   and follow Your way in this.

Empower us

       to not be distracted

by what You do not intend

or by what does not serve You.

What are the implications

    of living differently

    because we love You?

To a thousand

                generations.
