A FAVORITE PSALMS!

Psalm 10 King James Version (KJV)

10 Why standest thou afar off, O Lord? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.

4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.

8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.

9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

10 He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.

11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

12 Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.

13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.

14 Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.

16 The Lord is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.

17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.

JUST THINKING!

IT IS 5 AM,
MY LEGS ARE ON FIRE,
MY HIP WON'T TURN,
SO I SLOWLY RISE,
AND GO TO MY DEN,
PICK UP SOME PAPER
AND BEGAN TO WRITE,
WRITE WORDS WITH,
THIS OLD PEN.

THE MOON IS BRIGHT,
IT REFLECTS THE SUN,
AND LIGHTS UP THE NIGHT.
I SEND SOME EMAILS
TO MY FRIENDS,
AND STAY SAFE,
UNTIL THIS VIRUS PASSES,
SO WE CAN GET OUT,
TO SEE THE FLOWERS,
AND BEAUTIFUL GREEN GRASS,
I MOURN FOR THOSE,
SOULS WHO HAVE PASSED,
PRAYING THEY WERE READY,
TO MAKE IT TO HEAVEN,
AND LIVE IN PEACE,
AND NOT WHERE ,
THE TORMENTS NEVER CEASE.
SO MY PRAYER IS FOR THOSE,
WHO KNOW NOT CHRIST,
THAT WHILE THEY CAN SPEAK,
WHOULD ASK FORGIVENESS
FROM THEIR CREATOR,
THE ONE WHO CAN SAVE THEM,
TO GIVE THEM PERFECT PEACE,
AND PERFECT REST,
AND TO BE ETERNALLY BLEST!

22 Do you have faith?[a] Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves. 23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.[b]

All things should be done in faith!

1 Peter 1:6,7— Our faith is often tested by affliction!

When some had heard and through faith excepted the news about Jesus they were converted. Faith leads to conversion!

Hebrews 12:1-2 (New King James Version)
Hebrews 12
The Race of Faith
1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Jesus the Christ is the author and finisher of our faith!

1 Cor. 12:9— Faith is a gift of the Holy Spirit!
