We can look around our world and see the > anarchy and brutality when there is no principle of law > undergirding the soul of a society. God's law provided so many > wonderful blessings, and can still bless us today if we will let > it. But the greatest blessing of the O.T. Law is Jesus, in whom all > of God's promises find their fulfillment. > >MY PRAYER... >Holy Father, thank you for your righteousness. Knowing that you will >dispense justice and settle all injustice when you judge the earth >gives me comfort because I know that through Jesus, you see me as >righteous. My prayer today is that I can live in a way that brings >honor to you and reflects the character of your Son when he walked >this earth. Through him I pray. Amen. > >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written by Phil Ware of >HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/frjmrrg_zmvafn.html>http://www.heartlight.org >----------- >The NIV Daily Verse is provided by ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/kikmiir_zmvafn.html>http://www.zondervan.com > >If you enjoyed this newsletter, forward it on to a friend. > >* Copyright 2005 Salem Web Network and its Content Providers. >All rights reserved. ~~~~ Alan & Ruth Anne Wheeler <da2ofus@...> Proud owners of the following lists: Ladies Fellowship, LF Newsletter, Bread of Life, Christian Drummer and swgCares at: <www.associate.com> The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. ~ Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)
