As long as I live,while I have breath from God,4my lips will speak no evil,and my tongue will speak no lies.

“God alone understands the way to wisdom; he knows where it can be found, for he looks throughout the whole earth and sees everything under the heavens. He decided how hard the winds should blow and how much rain should fall. He made the laws for the rain and laid out a path for the lightning. Then he saw wisdom and evaluated it. He set it in place and examined it thoroughly. And this is what he says to all humanity: ‘The fear of the Lord is true wisdom; to forsake evil is real understanding.’”

For I am like a tree whose roots reach the water,whose branches are refreshed with the dew.20New honors are constantly bestowed on me,and my strength is continually renewed.’

Lord God my Father,

Keep my heart in your care, protect me from distraction. Allow your confidence to be mine and my strength come from your Truth.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
