Show me your ways

Sometimes in the thick of battle we look down at ourselves and go "oh no!".  Then the Lord comes to our rescue, we look up at Him  "oh yes!".  Below are links to today's 'random' OT and NT chapters and some excerpts.

• 73 Truly God is good to Israel,
      to those who are pure in heart.
  ² But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled,
      my steps had nearly slipped.
  ³ For I was envious of the arrogant
      when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
• ¹⁵ I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. ¹⁶ They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ¹⁷ Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. ¹⁸ As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. ¹⁹ And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth. ²⁰ “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, ²¹ that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
