day 149

Romans 12:12,14,17-19
Be joyful in hope, patient in affiction, faithful in prayer. Bless those who persecute you; BLESS and do not curse. Do NOT repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.
Hope? Yeah! Hope. God will get you through it all. You and God have different to-do lists. Getting back at people and giving them "a taste of their own medicine" is NOT on your list. God knows both sides of all situations and will deal with each person accordingly. Pray for people who do wrong to you. Don't wish ill on even your own worst enemy. Always be joyful--not happy, but joyful--pray without end.
1Thessalonians 5:16-18
Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
How often have you asked God what His plan for you is? Are there any prayer requests today?
