Golden Rule

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in all of our actions on this day, and in what we say and do. Please help us to be humble and not be seeking glory for ourselves or seeking the attention of others with noise and self exaltation. Please use us this day to show paths to others who need protection and guidance as they seek a path to Your Kingdom among all of the false calls for happiness from the lustful world of greed and hate. May we please demonstrate wisdom by having priorities and values that reflect the teachings of Jesus Christ by living by the golden rule of "Doing unto others as we would have them do unto us".
Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings that You have given us and please forgive our sins as we forgive the mistakes of others, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen/

KJV* 
Mt 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

Mt 7:12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

Lu 6:31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

Mt 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 
Mt 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 
Mt 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

Truths of Love

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in all that we say and do. Dear Lord may our actions on this day be such that give witness to a righteous heart and witness to the Truths of Love that Jesus the Christ taught and still does to all who will listen.
Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings that You have given us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

 Joh 10:15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Joh 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 
Joh 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

Quotation:*
I have never known the time when I have felt for a moment free from a sense of unworthiness, or free from a consciousness of imperfection and of a sinful nature, but since I have come to understand that I am accepted of God on the ground of Christ's righteousness and not my own, and therefore my standing is in Him and His righteousness and not my own, I have ceased even to question the fact of my present salvation. -Stebbins

KJV*
2Co 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 

Php 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Php 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Php 4:20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
