The Earth Is Filled With Your Love, Lord

The earth is filled with your love, Lord; teach me your decrees. — Psalm 119:64

God fills the earth with His love.

His creation proclaims His goodness.

And His decrees are designed with me in mind.

I don't always pay attention.

But I do ask Him to teach me His decrees.

So that I can follow His commands.

And He can use me to fulfill His purpose.

Our family is blessed.

Do Not Forget the Lord

Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe His commands, His laws, and His decrees that I am giving you this day. — Deuteronomy 8:11

At times my life gets so harried and busy that I neglect God.

I don't give Him the praise and thanks for all He has done for me.

I don't honor Him in the way He deserves.

I neglect His commands and laws and turn to my own way instead.

At times like those, God brings Kirk's example of Christian love and patience to me, to remind me where I'm failing him.

Help me, Lord, to grow in my relationship with You.

Thank you for your mercy.
