O God, do not be far from me; O my God, make haste to help me! Let them be confounded and consumed who are adversaries of my life....I will hope continually, and will praise You yet more and more. My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness and Your salvation all the day, for I do not know their limits. I will go in the strength of the Lord God; I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only. O God, You have taught me from my youth; and to this day I declare Your wonderous works. Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, do not forsake me, until I declare YOur strength to this generation, Your power to everyone who is to come. Also Your righteousness O God is very high, You who have done great things; O God who is like You? You who have shown me great and severe troubles, shall revive me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth. You shall increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side......my lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You, and my soul, which YOu have redeemed. My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long.

    Will you be posting these continually?
    Hi Ballentine

    I am not a real frequent reader, and only check the board a couple times a week. If you are going to post scripture, I will read more often. It is always a wonderful thing to reflect on my Lord and all He does for me. I am so glad I accepted Jesus before my dx. It made all the difference in the world. Don't know how I could have made it through that, and all of life's other slams and bams without my Lord. Thanks sister!

    I try to post a daily scripture
    Sharon,
    I do post daily unless I am out of town or overly busy and don't get a chance to. I work for the school district and am off for the summer so I have much more time now. In the fall when I go back I probably will post in the evenings.

    I try my best to read God's word daily and also go to the 'Our Daily Bread' website each day to get my day started and read the devotionals there. Getting our mind centered on Christ first thing in the morning sets the tone for the day to walk in the spirit and not fulfill the lust of the flesh. He is our strength, peace, comfort and our guide. Without Him I do not know where I would be.
    Be Blessed and let God be MAGNIFIED!
