THE LIVING WORDS OF CHRIST, THE PSALMS OF MY LIFE

GOD'S LIVING WORD FOR TODAY

Ephesians 6:10-17 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his
mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand
against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark
world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full
armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and
after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of
truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can
extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of
the Spirit, which is the word of God.

PSALMS OF JOY CHAPTER 82

BLESSED VINE
1. What insurmountable trust would let me go to the crushing of failure?
Only your infallible and invincible love interceding, my Lord

2. I am truly the workmanship of your hands. Your love has hovered over my will-full and apathetic ways. Your patience has endured the stripes of my shame, the arrogance of my high-mindedness.

3. I have been blinder than the blind, deafer than the deaf. Yet you have spoken gently and opened my eyes to the corruption of my soul, and the delusions of my mind.

4. You would teach me of the Love that passes all understanding and the joy that fills the soul with overflowing thanksgiving and praise.

5. I cling to You my Beloved. Never let me go. I praise you for the crushing of your presence in my life. For the oil of gladness that has come from it. For the Life that now flows within the branch of me.
