"Traps, Tests, and Temptations"

1. " David cried out to God. He knew that God was able to forgive him, rescue him, and heal him. Whatever your failings or whatever difficulties you may face, you too can bring them to God in prayer." Thank You, Lord for all of these!

2. "Lord, help me today, with every person I encounter, to have the right words, to bring good news, to have a heart of compassion and to seek to minister to others, as Jesus did. Help me not to be put off by criticism but to keep following the example of Jesus." I really, really, greatly need this, O, Lord. My heart is stubborn, Lord, help me.

3. "‘No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he’ll never let you be pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through it’ (1 Corinthians 10:13, MSG)." Hallelujah!
