Psalm 11
There are days when it is difficult to keep going, and to keep going along the path set for us by God - to avoid sin and to glorify Him. I know there are many times when I want go my own path, to divert from the path God has set in front of me, because I may believe that my path is better and I don't trust that God's path is the way. Yet in Psalms 11:7 David provides the encouragement I need to focus on the eternal as a means to persevere while here on earth.

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, what an awesome God You are that You provide a path for me...and it is a perfect path. You have never led me astray - every path You have provided has been a blessing to me. Thank You Jesus! I am not worth such a God. I am easily distracted...even today and desire to go my own path with various frustrations. Forgive me Jesus. Help me turn from such sin and turn towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength. Help me love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give me strength. Give Lisa strength. Please heal and cure her of her cancer and side effects of cancer. Please heal her from the removal of the chemo port today and praise God for this milestone! Help me lead and serve Lisa, Zach and Dustin. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
For the Lord is righteous, he loves justice; the upright will see his face. v7
