Proverbs 25:11; A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver. Its funny because today as I went out to pick up metal I was overwhelmed by a feeling, I was going to find something of value. Money wise! As I was driving down the street even my palm began to itch and I was excited. I couldnt wait to see what the Lord was going to bless me with! Well the wealth that I found was more then I expected! And though it may not have been money the blessing is greater. I found A Diary of Private Prayer. Here are prayers for all the mornings and evenings of the months; Written by Author John Baillie 1955 addition. Funny because i been asking God to bless me! So that I could bless others. With out Gods blessing in our life how can we bless any one? Apples of gold in silver settings. First Day: Eternal Father of my soul, let my first thought today be of thee, let my first impulse be to worship thee, let my first speech be Thy name, let my first action be to kneel before Thee in prayer. For Thy perfect wisdom and perfect goodness: For the love wherewith Thou lovest mankind: For the love wherewith Thou lovest me: For the great and mysterious opportunity of my life: For the indwelling of Thy Spirit in my heart: For the sevenfold gifts of Thy Spirit: I praise and worship Thee, O Lord. Yet let me not, when this morning prayer is said , think my worship ended and spend the day in forgetfulness of Thee. Rather from these moments of quietness let light go forth, and joy, and power, that will remain with me through all the hours of the day; Keeping me chaste in thought: Keeping me temperate and truthful in speech: Keeping me faithful and diligent in my work: Keeping me humble in my estimation of myself: Keeping me honourable and generous in my dealings with others: Keeping me loyal to every hallowed memory of the past: Keeping me mindful of my eternal destiny as a child of Thine. O God, who hast been the Refuge of my fathers through many generations, be my Refuge to-day in every time and circumstance of need. Be my Guide through all that is dark and doubtful. Be my Guard against all that threatens my spirits welfare. Be my Strength in time of testing. Gladden my heart with Thy peace; through Jesus Christ my Lord. Amen!
