Psalm 119:160
Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

What of Today’s Verse

The requirements of morality and holiness are not temporary or fleeting because they reflect the nature of our Holy God who is eternal. They don’t shift with the wishes of culture, but are true across cultures and times and wishes.

Prayer:

Righteous God Almighty, may my life reflect your character and nature in compassion, holiness, and justice. I know you are forever, and I want to invest my life in what lasts. Give me wisdom to see through the fleeting temptations of today and do what honours you beyond my lifetime. In Jesus name. Amen.

Words of Wisdom

Strike at the root of a tree; it would bleed but still live.  Strike at the trunk; it would bleed but still live.  Strike again at the top; it would bleed but still live.  The Self as life Supports the tree, which stands firm and enjoys the nourishment it receives.

If the Self leaves one branch, that branch withers.  If it leaves a second, that too withers.  If it leaves a third, that again withers.  Let it leave the whole tree, the whole tree dies.  Just so, dear one, when death comes and the Self Departs from the body, the body dies.  But the Self dies not.
