1 In the Lord's hand the king's heart is a stream of water that he channels toward all who please him.
2 A person may think their own ways are right, but the Lord weighs the heart.
3 To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
4 Haughty eyes and a proud heart- the unplowed field of the wicked-produce sin.
5 The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.

Yes, LORD, walking in the way of your laws, we wait for you; your name and renown are the desire of our hearts.
Read all of Isaiah 26 NIVWe know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Read all of Romans 8 NIVI delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
Read all of Isaiah 61 NIV"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength."
Read all of Mark 12 NIV"No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks."
Read all of Luke 6 NIVBut among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person -- such a man is an idolater -- has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Read all of Ephesians 5 NIV"Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name."
