Psalm 86:6

Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; listen to my plea for grace

Proverbs 26:24-26

24

Whoever hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart;

25

when he speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart;

26

though his hatred be covered with deception, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

Psalm 6:16-19

16

There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him:

17

haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

18

a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,

19

a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

1 John 2:9-11

9

Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness.

10

Whoever loves his brother abides in the light, and in him there is no cause for stumbling.

11

But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

John 20

23

If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you withhold forgiveness from any, it is withheld."

1 Timothy 5:17-21

17

Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching.

18

For the Scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain," and, "The laborer deserves his wages."

19

Do not admit a charge against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses.

20

As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear.

21

In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without prejudging, doing nothing from partiality.

Titus 1:5-11

5

This is why I left you in Crete, so that you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you--

6

if anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination.

7

For an overseer,as God's steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain,

8

but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined.

9

He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction insound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.

10

For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those ofthe circumcision party.

11

They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach.

Matthew 5:21-26

21

"You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.'

22

But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, 'You fool!' will be liable to the hellof fire.

23

So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,

24

leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.

25

Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison.

26

Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny.

Ephesians 4:25-31

25

Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

26

Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,

27

and give no opportunity to the devil.

28

Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, sothat he may have something to share with anyone in need.

29

Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.

30

And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

31

Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.

Colossians 3:8-18

8

But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.

9

Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices

10

and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

11

Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave,free; but Christ is all, and in all.

12

Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness,humility, meekness, and patience,

13

bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

1 Tiimothy 2:3-8

3

This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,

4

who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

5

For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

6

who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.

7

For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

8

I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;








Lyric of the day:


Portion of every teardrop is a watefall, by Coldplay



MAYBE I'M IN THE BLACK, MAYBE I'M ON MY KNEES
MAYBE I'M IN THE GAP BETWEEN THE TWO TRAPEZES
BUT MY HEART IS BEATING AND MY PULSES START
CATHEDRALS IN MY HEART


AND WE SAW OH THIS LIGHT I SWEAR YOU, EMERGE BLINKING INTO
TO TELL ME IT'S ALRIGHT
AS WE SOAR WALLS, EVERY SIREN IS A SYMPHONY
AND EVERY TEAR'S A WATERFALL
