Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭23‬-‭27‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

FROM TODAY'S READING...

“Achievement seems to be connected with action. Successful men and women keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.”
Conrad Hilton (1887-1979)

Founder of Hilton Hotels


Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭23‬-‭27‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.


Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭11‬-‭12‬, ‭14‬-‭18‬, ‭21‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying...

Bless those who persecute you. Don’t curse them; pray that God will bless them. Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with each other. Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don’t think you know it all! Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone...

Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.
