Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in all things that we say and do. Please dear Lord help us not to take our life situation for granted and to appreciate what we have in every way, knowing that every thing is temporary and will end when it's course is run. Please give us the strength that we need every day to carry on and the wisdom to make the best of our life as we live it. 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.
KJV*
Php 4:11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
Php 4:12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
Php 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Ro 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Ro 11:34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
Ro 11:35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
Ro 11:36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

Ge 13:8 And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.
Mr 9:34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.
Mr 9:35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
Jas 3:16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
Jas 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

Mt 13:45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
Mt 13:46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Pr 8:8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
Pr 8:9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
Pr 8:10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
Pr 8:11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

Mr 12:28 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?
Mr 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
Mr 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
Mr 12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Mr 12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
Mr 12:33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Mr 12:34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.
