Deal with Your servant according to Your mercy, and teach me Your statutes. (NKJV)
Thoughts
How often do we see what we perceive as somebody getting away with something, and we say, "Lord, why don't You do something about that?"
Have you ever stopped to think about how many times we are guilty of something equally as bad, but we have gotten away with it! The Lord did not send lightning down from Heaven to strike us dead as He might and probably should have done! You know you are guilty, even though the "act" was only what you thought in your heart and not what you actually did.
(Dave H)
Action Point
Pray that the Lord will deal with you out of His mercy and not His justice; and pray that He does the same with others as well.
Remember that we are responsible for not only what we do, but also what we think!
Ask the Lord to teach you His statutes so that you might live!
Sportsmen's Tip of the Day
Ignorance of the law is no excuse. How many times have we heard that? As we try to be good stewards of our natural resources, we need to know the statutes that deal with the resource we are using. As Christians, we should set an example to others. Before engaging in any outdoor activity, take a moment to review the laws pertaining to that activity.
