Due Diligence

Read:  Psalm 72 / Proverbs 27 / Ezra 6 / 2 Peter 1

Psalm 72:18-20 Blessed be the LORD God... who only doeth wondrous things. And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen. The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
Proverbs 27:1,11,23 Boast not thyself of tomorrow… My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me... Be thou diligent.
Ezra 6:22 The LORD had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
2 Peter 1:10,19 Brethren, give diligence... We have also a more sure word of prophecy...  ye do well that ye take heed.

The time to give due diligence
To glorify our Lord and Savior
Is now and every moment hence 
To gladden Him by our behavior. 

The Lord gives joy and strengthens hands
As He beholds us taking heed
To do the work that He commands
With grace supplying every need.
