Personal note: we have had our windows open all day today. Normal temperature these days is 30 - 32 degrees (86 - 90 F). But today with a cool breeze from the west in mid-afternoon it is overcast and 25. How comfortable. What a nice change.
Now to a Scripture for today.
I want to keep first things first. I want to seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness. I know that if my heart is undivided then life will not wobble.
Now to a Scripture for today.
"Teach me your way,Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness;
give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name." Psalm 86:11 (NIV)

"Grant me purity of heart, so that I may honor you." (NLT)
"Unite my heart to fear Your name." (NASB)
"Give me an undivided mind to fear Your name."(Holman)
"Put me together, one heart and mind; then, undivided, I'll worship in joyful fear.
(The Message)
Every disciple of Jesus needs to pray this kind of phrase regularly. "Lord, please give me an undivided heart, purity of heart, one heart and mind, undivided. I am so prone to organize my thoughts, goals, values around other things or people instead of you Lord. I know you should be the center of my universe for you are the Center of the Universe. But I so easily move myself back toward the center, and when I do, everything becomes unbalanced; like a spinning top that wobbles because its with weight is not centered."
I want to keep first things first. I want to seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness. I know that if my heart is undivided then life will not wobble.
