2 Samuel 19:9-43; Jeremiah 3:6-4:2; Galatians 4:21-5:9
Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Luke 11:42
What are my priorities? So many choices in life are motivated by how I want people to think of me. Every believer at times can be tempted to be more concerned about their image before men than a clear conscience before God. The Lord Jesus pointed out about the Pharisees and their neglect of the fundamental duties of life. How often do I excel in what is noticed by man but reckless about what only God can see. —Sid Halsband
Unworthy our thanksgiving, our service stained with sin,
Except as Thou art living, our Priest, to bear it in. —Mary B. Peters
