Psalm 16
The plans of the heart belong to man,
but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
2 All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
but the Lord weighs the spirit.
3 Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established.
4 The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
even the wicked for the day of trouble.
5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the Lord;
be assured, he will not go unpunished.
6 By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for,
and by the fear of the Lord one turns away from evil.
7 When a man's ways please the Lord,
he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Better is a little with righteousness
than great revenues with injustice.
9 The heart of man plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps.
10 An oracle is on the lips of a king;
his mouth does not sin in judgment.
11 A just balance and scales are the Lord's;
all the weights in the bag are his work.
Psalm 119:73-96
73 Your hands have made and fashioned me;
give me understanding that I may learn your commandments.
74 Those who fear you shall see me and rejoice,
because I have hoped in your word.
75 I know, O Lord, that your rules are righteous,
and that in faithfulness you have afflicted me.
76 Let your steadfast love comfort me
According to your promise to your servant.
77 Let your mercy come to me, that I may live;
for your law is my delight.
78 Let the insolent be put to shame,
because they have wronged me with falsehood;
as for me, I will meditate on your precepts.
79 Let those who fear you turn to me,
that they may know your testimonies.
80 May my heart be blameless in your statutes,
that I may not be put to shame!
My soul longs for your salvation;
I hope in Your Word.
My eyes long for your promise;
I ask, “When will you comfort me?”
If we combine the Daily Liturgical Readings today. We have a conversation. And if if if I told you no one in Houston noticed the INCREDIBLE WEATHER in May, you'd be astonished.
And if I told you the Political News has suddenly thrown the Train Breaks on and said, oh forget all the news on Political Favor and Polls, now let's discuss The old television Show, "Dallas" when the entire season was erased because it was all a dream.
We can all agree, this is unsettling. And completely unrealistic of the news reports. And all agree.
What is more astonishing. Anything?
Yes, indeed. The count-down news reports keep asking about people requesting more News about Jesus Christ. I saw at least 6 requests for more facts about Jesus. Listen, honey, Or if you prefer the Biblical use of the word well included, "Beloved". Listen, honey child. If you are keen, eager, wondering, thinking, have a thirst to know more about Jesus, don't ask from the changeable.
Ask the Steadfast. Ask The Love. Ask The Bible. Seek the fact we all live in a world that can be a hassle. Have the comment. The opinion. And have trouble. Read the Word of God.
Interesting.
The questions have a Theme. Is Jesus Human? Does He Like me? Would I like HIM?
The situation with asking the people who are changeable. Some of the answers were: Jesus would be astonished, we Celebrate Christmas. Om, no! Some of the most Celebrated Holidays as Jesus was Born... The Festival of Booths. Everyone camped out or on their flat roof for 2 weeks. The people who walked everywhere, actually like to Sail. In a Boat. And have fun. Go to Parties. Eat. Drink. Dance at Weddings. Make Wine. Visit Vineyards, a favorite theme with Jesus.
Didn't think we would Celebrate Christmas? Rocks instead of brains. Opinion over Biblical Truth. The Host Of Heaven Came and Serenaded. All of them. Singing to the Party. The Shepherds Traveled and had a Birthday Party. Thee, yes, 'Thee' Temple was waiting in GLEE for Jesus to be Presented at The Temple.
If you are longing to know Jesus as a Human Being. Who is God.
See the readings from 1000 BC
Heart?
The answer of the tongue is in The Lord's Word. The Lord's Spirit knows far more.
Nothing is worrying God today.
He has the whole World in His Hands. Yes, He does. He has the whole World in His Hands. Yes, He does.
The Lord loves a just scale. He likes us to tell the truth. And seek the truth. And teach inside our homes the truth. The Lord Loves Justice.
We like this.
When we seek the Comfort of the Lord, we are open to understanding All His Word creates a Shelter for Love to Live.
Jesus wanted those He loves to know His view of His Life and Ministry.
is the most Jesus spoke at one time.
Know Jesus, Know the Scriptures.
Matthew 22:29. Jesus even had a time people asked Him about Reincarnation and Heaven marriages. People asked Jesus the wildest questions. Jesus called us His Beloved and He answered.
This Continues today.
So does John's Gospel, Chapter 17, Today.
What Jesus said in 3000 BC is Today. What Jesus said in the Holy Spirit during the Bronze Age applies today. It isn't up to God to be bendy. It is up to us to have an open Heart and know those who walked with Jesus and knew His Father, called Him, God of Love.
Abba, Father,
Our Father, Who is in Heaven
Come to us, Father.
Come to us, Holy Spirit.
Come to us, Jesus Christ.
We welcome You.
In this unexpected time.
Plague.

No Logic. Missing truth.
United in Prayer.
Father, in Heaven, Thank You,

Abide in every moment of our Lives.
The Lord God
Father of All
In Every Moment.
Gently Holding our Prayers.
Understanding the Best of us.
Knowing the worst.
Saving the world,
Dwell in us, Father,
we ask in the Highest Name of Jesus.
Dwell, fully, in those we love
Help us to seek You
first
and we will finish well
in Jesus Christ.
We pray
Peace
for Israel
and Your Good Creation.
Continued Healing
and all Good Health!
We pray blessings on Poland
for helping Ukraine.
We pray the EU will help Ukraine.
Peace for the world.
Father,
people say You have no
real plan for us
as a Child of God.
Not individual plans.
The Lord answers
in His Word:
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,”
Declares the LORD,
“Plans to prosper you
and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope
and
a future.”
O Lord, you have searched me and known me!
2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
You discern my thoughts from afar.
3 You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 Even before a word is on my tongue
,
behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.
You hem me in, behind and before,
and lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
it is high; I cannot attain it.
Where shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where shall I flee from your presence?
If I ascend to Heaven
YOU are there!
Praise Your gift of life
in Jesus.
Amen.
♔ Lord Jesus Saves †
