Whoop,there it is. #lookingatthemoon #harvestmoon #complinecompanionEvening Prayer prayed tonight on the road again - had to pull over for this sight and to pray evening prayer, Psalm 8…When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars you have set in their courses, What is man that you should be mindful of him? the son of man that you should seek him out? #cloudsofwitnessesinthenightsky #lovemeafullmoon #comforted #godspresence #notquitefullyetbutclose #moreToday’s Morning Psalm combined with the today’s passage from James regarding wisdom were just the words needed for me and for all those subject to another’s anger, wherein their words inflame and incite showing forth “… bitter envy and selfish ambition in their hearts…For where there is envy and selfish ambition, there will also be disorder and wickedness of every kind.” (James 3:13). We are called not to reply in kind, but to look and rise above - for wisdom comes from on high. For now, at this noon hour, I am still before you, Lord. Under your #cloudsofwitnesses and praying these words. Psalm 37: 5 Commit your way to the Lord and put your trust in him, and he will bring it to pass. He will make your righteousness as clear as the light and your just dealing as the noonday. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him. Do not fret yourself over the one who prospers, the one who succeeds in evil schemes. Refrain from anger, leave rage alone; do not fret yourself; it leads only to evil. #godspax #refrainfromanger #leaveragealone #cloudsofwitnesses #psalm37 #dailylectionary AM Psalm 37:1-18; PM Psalm 37:19-42 1 Kings 11:1-13; James 3:13-4:12; Mark 15:12-21- Follow Trinity Seasons EPISTLES on WordPress.com
