Today’s Reading: Psalm 139:19-22

LORD God,
you know all my hurts.
I bring them before you.
Pour your love into me,
so I can love even my enemies.
Show me the way forward.

Help me walk in the way of love

 Jesus said…

“You have heard that it was said,
‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
But I tell you,
love your enemies
and pray for those who persecute you,
that you may be children of your Father in heaven.
He causes his sun to rise on the evil
and the good,
and sends rain on the righteous
and the unrighteous”
(Matthew 5:43-45 NIV)*

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 19_12-14

Reading: Psalm 19:12-14

Heavenly Father,
please forgive my sins.
Often, I have lived according to my will,
not yours.
Forgive my selfish ways.
May these words of my mouth
and this meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer. 
Amen.

— — —

“This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
    as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from the evil one.

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you,
your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
But if you do not forgive others their sins,
your Father will not forgive your sins.
(Matthew 6:9-15), NIV)*

I will praise the LORD!

Psalm 45_10-17

Reading: Psalm 25:8-11

Good and upright is the LORD;
    therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right
    and teaches them his way.
All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful
    toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.
For the sake of your name, LORD,
    forgive my iniquity, though it is great. *

Reading: Psalm 19:12-14

But who can discern their own errors?
    Forgive my hidden faults.
Keep your servant also from willful sins;
    may they not rule over me.
Then I will be blameless,
    innocent of great transgression.
May these words of my mouth
and this meditation of my heart
    be pleasing in your sight,
    LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer. *
