Psalms 148:11-13

Kings of the earth and all peoples,

Princes and all rulers of the earth!

Young men and maidens together,

Old men and children!

Let them praise the name of the LORD,

For His name alone is exalted;

His majesty is above earth and heaven.

gniknihT sdrawkcaB (Backwards Thinking)

Romans 7:15
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate, I do.

I know this is me and I let it show today.   Being inconsistent in my discipline of late has caused some confusion around this house and my temper got the best of me today when one of my children (who shall remain nameless); took advantage one too many times.  It was like the straw that broke the camel's back and I broke with it.  It reminded me of the above passage as I often feel that I live so backward from what the Lord requires of me. 

Micah 6:8
He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.

Thank you for showing me again, O Lord.
