Psalm 121
Inspired thots
How wonderful that the Lord God Almighty WATCHES over those whom He loves; those who call upon Him as Lord and Savior. God is so good to those who depend on Him. He is constantly watching over the ways of His people.
Indeed the Lord God wants only to BLESS; He takes care of those under His care.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)

Treacherous Tongue
Psalm 120
Inspired thots
One moment we can be calling on the Lord for deliverance and blessings; another moment we could be lying and waging war with our tongue. How true when James commented as the difficult control of the tongue. It is as difficult as the heart to manage.
Only by God's grace and loads of humility can the tongue come under subjection.
Lord, help guard my tongue and heart for Your glory. Let these two align to Your Will and Ways.

The Comfort from God's Word
