Of Words And Thoughts



May the words of my mouth
    and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing to you,
    O L
ORD, my rock and my redeemer.

—Psalm 19:14 (NLT)



Heavenly Father,


Help me make this my simple, but high standard today:  Let the words that I say and the thoughts I ponder, be pleasing to You.


Out of a heart of gratitude and love for You, may I always strive to allow Your love to guide what I say and permeate my thoughts. 

May every word that escapes from my lips, go forth with Your blessing—and to Your delight.

May every thought that I allow to come and dwell within my heart carry Your approval—and bring You pleasure.

For You are the firm and solid foundation of my life and the One who has redeemed me from the ultimate consequence of my sin—which is death—and given me life, with You forever.


Help me make this my simple, but high standard today:  Let the words that I say and the thoughts I ponder, be pleasing to You.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
