Scripture Reading • Psalm 34
~ Suggested Prayer ~
Father, you designed our emotions to be good, but like most of what you have made, we are capable of twisting them in a way you did not intend. Father as we study the theme of emotions in proverbs, make us more like Jesus, help us to grow in grace, help us to remember once again the height of our fall, and lead us in Your path of wisdom. We pray this in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
