Today is Thursday, October 19th, 2023; Karen's Korner #4979
This is yesterday's - October 18 - entry taken from"365 Days of Prayers for Women" by Stephanie Sample. Some good thoughts for me:
GOODNESS ITSELF
"Let love be genuine.
Abhor what is evil,
hold fast to what is good.
~ Romans 12:9 ESV
"God, you are goodness itself. To desire what is good is to desire you, and to do good is to become more and more filled with you. I can't understand my attraction to anything else. What does a show about murder, betrayal, and emptiness have to offer me when I could be meditating on the millions of ways you are wonderful? Why gossip when I can share your love? Lord, I want to hate the darkness. Give me a bitter taste when it encroaches on me. Cause me to recoil in protest. Help me cling to truth, loveliness, and light, pursuing goodness, and finding you."
"Is our love genuine?
Do we abhor evil
and hold fast to what is good?"
