"This is how we are sure that we have come to know Him: by keeping His commands"
-- 1 John 2:3 / Holman Christian Standard Bible
When we seek righteousness in our own lives -- and when we seek the companionship of those who do likewise -- we reap the spiritual rewards that God intends for us to enjoy. When we behave as godly men and women, we honor God. When we live righteously and according to God's commandments, He blesses us in ways that we cannot fully understand.
Today, as you fulfill your responsibilities, hold fast that which is good, and associate yourself with believers who behave in good fashion. When you do, your good works will serve as a powerful example for others and as a worthy offering to your Creator.

Dear Lord, this world has countless temptations, distractions, interruptions, and frustrations. When we allow our focus to drift away from You and Your Word, we suffer. But, when we turn our thoughts and our prayers to You, Heavenly Father, You guide our path. Let us discover the right thing to do - and let us do it - this day and every day that we live. Amen.
