Morning:
When ye shall have done all those things which
are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants.
Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of
works? Nay: but by the law of faith. What hast thou that thou
didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou
glory, as if thou hadst not received it? By grace are ye
saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the
gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are
his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which
God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
By the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was
bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more
abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which
was with me. For of him, and through him, and to him, are all
things. All things come of thee, and of thine own have we
given thee.
Enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight
shall no man living be justified.
Luke 17:10 Romans 3:27 1 Corinthians 4:7 Ephesians 2:8-10 1 Corinthians 15:10 Romans 11:36 1 Chronicles 29:14 Psalms 143:2
Evening:
He knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
The LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a
living soul.
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully
made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth
right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made
in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the
earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and
in thy book all my members were written, which in
continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of
them.
Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? In
him we live, and move, and have our being. Like as a father
pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear
him.
He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and
destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away,
and did not stir up all his wrath. For he remembered that they
were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not
again.
Psalms 103:14 Genesis 2:7 Psalms 139:14-16 Malachi 2:10 Acts 17:28 Psalms 103:13 Psalms 78:38-39
