His father had never interfered with him by asking,
"Why do you behave as you do?"
1Kings 1:6
Daily Thought
Three monkeys from Japan.
Mizaru: See no evil
Kikazaru: Hear no evil
Iwazaru: Speak no evil
They have a fourth brother,
Shizaru: Do no evil
Do not look at evil,
do not listen to evil,
do not speak evil,
and you will not do evil.
Eat not the bread of him who has an evil eye, neither desire his dainty meats: For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
--Proverbs 23:6-7
We don't like the fourth brother. We cover our eyes, ears, and mouth not to shut out, but to shut up.
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Don't ask, don't tell.
Just do it.
Mottos of a modern era.
The problem is, what happens in Vegas gets out.
Blessed is the man you discipline, O LORD,
the man you teach from your law;
you grant him relief from days of trouble.
--Psalm 94:12-13

Daily Prayer
Righteous and Loving Father, I know that You are good and You made this world good. When we follow You, we are blessed. Your discipline is good. It comes from Your love, Your desire to see Your children produce a harvest of righteousness and peace.
Father, Your correction is painful, at times, but I am glad for it. It puts me back on the right path. Do not let me become blind and deaf to the consequences of evil, but help me remember the joy of walking with You, so I will always long for it.
Amen
