For those who find me find life and receive favor from the Lord. 36But those who fail to find me harm themselves; all who hate me love death.”

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Lord God my Father,

You are all things good and holy, you make my path calm and orderly. Show me how to be still so I can know you, quiet the storms of my thoughts so your way is clear. Help me to delight in you this day.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
