Psalm 17:3b~

 

I am determined not to sin in what I say.  (NLT)

 

I have resolved that my mouth will not sin.  (NIV)

 

I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.  (NAS)

 

In my Bible reading this morning, I read Psalm 17 and came across the above verse.  I pray that as I go about my work today as a wife and mother that I would not sin in what I say.  That I would "not let any unwholesome talk come out of [my] mouth, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen" (Eph. 4:29).   I pray also that I would "consider how [I] may spur one another on toward love and good deeds" (Heb. 10:24). 

 

It will be a happy day indeed!
