Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. — Proverbs 3:3-4 KJV
Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. — Proverbs 3:3-4 NIV
Thought and Reflection
Character is judged by the devotion and love we show in our everyday life. These aren’t simple qualities that can be faked. The expression of love for others is when we are in control of one another, but prefer to show them compassion with genuine consideration.
The definition of faith is to be a person of integrity, honest and reliable in words and actions. These virtues must be part of our lives and become part of our character. If they are, people will notice, and God will be happy.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, I praise You for Your example of strength and mercy, holiness and compassion, love and faithfulness. Carve this character on my heart and mind as I submit myself to Your perfect will and open my life to Your power of transformation. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
