September 24 - Psalm 64:10

The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord
and trust in Him,
and all the upright in heart shall glory. 
Psalm 64:10
 
Who shall rejoice? The righteous. Why?
 
It's normal and natural for all of us to desire God's blessings. So why don't we see more? Often it's because our lives aren't aligned with God's plans and purposes. Even a few degrees off of center makes a greater and greater difference as the miles of life add up.
 
Righteousness -- and right living -- aligns our lives with God. Righteousness is more than just honorable acts and upstanding ethics. It's proper prayer, deeper devotion, wonderful worship, and passionate praise.
 
If you want even more rejoicing and joy, start asking God where you're a degree or two off. And settle even more fully into his grace.
 
In Christ's Love,
a guy who's odometer
keeps reading more miles
and needs to save the engine
by heading in the right direction
