Impressions

Dear Lord please may this be a good day, and please guide and protect us as we move about among the children of Your Kingdom. May we not jump to judgement with first impressions as we meet people, and may we not try to impress people ourselves, but greet others with humility and an attitude of peaceful quietness. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

KJV
Mic 6:8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
Lu 14:8 When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;
Lu 14:9 And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.
Lu 14:10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.
Lu 14:11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
