Psalm 15: The question and the answer
Today Carol Adamson brought us into Psalm 15.
There is so much I want to talk to about this lesson, but before I forget, I need to type that while I am working on these things I will need to also work on having a dour countenance.
You know, that part in the bible where it talks of fasting but not putting on a face and tearing your clothes - but do it privately.
When I am trying to fix these obviously wrong things in my life I need to make sure I keep the smile on my face even though I must purge these bad things that I do.
I do these things to bring joy and laughter but in reality that is not how it comes across. I mean, how stupid am I when the terms are 'making fun of someone'. Those words hurt just hearing them but I get people to laugh by doing just that.
I'm going to have to go silent for awhile so that I can replace these bad habits with new good habits - new good ways of speech. And I have to do it with a smile - always with a smile so no one discerns how painful it is to learn a whole new way of living.
On this day the Lord has made . . .
As I was driving home from the grocery store I heard a man on the radio ask what we were leaving our children/grandchildren. He mentioned how he would choose, over any amount of money, the writings from his grandfather . . . if he had left any.
So, I have determined to create a diary/journal of what happened to me on this day(s) the Lord has granted me.

Prayer List
- Thank you Father thank you.
- Lord, extend the kingdom of your Son.
- O Merciful God, who hast made all men, and hatest nothing that thou hast made, nor desirest the death of a sinner, but rather that he should be converted and live; Have mercy upon all who know thee not as thou are revealed in the Gospel of thy Son. Take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart, and contempt of thy Word; and so fetch them home, blessed Lord to thy fold, that they may be one flock under one shepherd, Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
