Purified Peace

Read:  Psalm 37 / Proverbs 5 / Joshua 16 / Mat. 22 

Psalm 37:37,40 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace... The LORD shall help them, and deliver them... because they trust in him.
Proverbs 5:7-11 Hear me now therefore... lest thou give thine honor unto others, and thy years unto the cruel... and thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed.
Joshua 16:4,10 The children of Joseph... drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
Matthew 22:37 Jesus said... Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

There is an end to each beginning,
For time that moves us does not cease. 
There is a consequence for sinning,
But love for God produces peace. 

How great the grace is from above 
That purifies the peace we find
As to our God we give our love
With all our heart, our soul, and mind.
