Don't lie.

From Psalm 15...

Lord, who may dwell in your sanctuary?
Who may live on your holy hill?

He who speaks the truth from his heart and has no slander on his tongue, who does his neighbor no wrong and casts no slur on his fellowman.

This is obvious and yet...I am not the person I aim to be. But today is a new day.

My mind is scattered. I'm thinking about all that I need to do this day, this week. How to kickstart my work?

But this is the first day of the rest of my life, and I have plenty of time (I imagine) to let God turn me into the person I aim to be.

The person I aim to be:

Loving, focused on others, my husband, kids, parents of my kids' friends and classmates (who are the people I tend to come in contact with these days).

Organized. I want to have a plan, professionally. And to have dinner ideas and get the grocery shopping done, etc.

Today I am going to aim to have no slander on my tongue. For just this one day. Can I do it? LET'S SEE!!!

I pray this in Jesus' name.

Amen
