March 2021 Week 5

Verse of the Day for Monday, March 29, 2021:

Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. — Psalm 37:6-7

Thoughts on Today’s Verse

“Chill out!” we hear heaven say to us. Come into God’s presence with dependent, yet confident, patience. But how can we? We know God will do what is right for us over the passage of time. The Bible is God’s story (HIS-story); it is the great testimony that he is always faithful to his promises, gracious in his power to redeem, and generous with his love shared with his children. So come into his presence and be willing to be still… and patient… and trusting… and hopeful!

My Prayer

Father, in the quietness of this moment, I consciously relax myself in your presence and place the concerns and cares of my heart before you. I trust, dear Father that you will act redemptively in my life. I confidently place my soul, my future, and my hope in your hands. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Verse of the Day for Wednesday, March 31, 2021:

The memory of the righteous will be a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot. — Proverbs 10:7

Thoughts on Today’s Verse

Sometimes the wisdom of God is short, succinct, and sweet for those who seek to do his will. I want my children and grandchildren to remember me with sweet thoughts because their dad, and granddad, sought to be righteous and love the Lord with all his heart. I refuse to live the kind of life that poisons the lives of those I touch and leaves rot in the heritage of my descendants.

My Prayer

O Holy and Righteous Father, I want my character to be a blessing to my children, my children’s children, and to my grandchildren’s children. Please give me wisdom, discernment, tact, honor, integrity, and compassionate holiness in all my actions, words, demeanor, and influence. May I provide a godly influence and a righteous memory for those in both my physical and spiritual families. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
