Joshua 3:7-17
1 Thessalonians 2:9-13
Matthew 23:1-12
1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2 For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

We are all works in progress.
I also want to commend you for being a bivocational pastor it's not easy - but it's great. Bless you in your ministry and in the market place.
YOu picked one of my favorite Psalms because it really brings out the best in us when we are real with who we are before G-d and others - a speck of dust. The difference being the heart of the matter. You see in verse 4 to verse 5 such a change of emotions.
Good blog.
