Reading: Psalm 146:1-5

LORD God,
I thank and praise you
for the gift of life.
You are worthy of worship.
I commit to worshipping you
every day for the rest of my life.
Thank you for eternal life
through Jesus my Savior.
Amen.

Furthermore,
Josiah got rid of the mediums and spiritists,
the household gods,
the idols and all the other detestable things
seen in Judah and Jerusalem.
This he did to fulfill the requirements of the law
written in the book that Hilkiah
the priest had discovered
in the temple of the LORD.
