Ec 7:8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
Ec 7:9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.

In Our Hearts and Minds
Dear Lord please be with us this day and help us to know that we should only be concerned with what You know is in our hearts and minds. Please show us that to try to shape our day around activities to impress others is only like a dog chasing it's tail, for meaningless rewards. Please show us how to surrender our will for Yours and let the Holy Spirit guide and protect us while we seek Your Kingdom and try to live by the golden rule and show humble love to Your whole creation. Dear Lord please forgive our sins as we forgive the mistakes of others and please lead us away from the sinful greed and hate of the lustful world that seeks happiness through material wealth, and domination over those who are different. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
