Psalm 119:66<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of Grace For Today<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are no stupid and senseless controversies today, are there? Ha!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What else is polarizing our countries, bringing in populist, fascist leaning, power hungry rulers, and dumping us all in despair<\/p>\n\n\n\n

reviewing how Hitler came to power and brought the world into a war which no one could win, in the end. Everyone except the money-hungry war-profiteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do not let self-prophecies come true, nor lose oneself into despair and hopelessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we beg God to teach us to live out wisdom<\/p>\n\n\n\n

at every turn,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

bringing grace to bear on all circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For only Grace lived out for all people<\/p>\n\n\n\n

can keep us from losing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

losing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

losing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God, teach us your commandments, but even more, teach us to live out your Grace for all people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
