Morning

A servant of Jesus Christ.

Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for [so] I am. --If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will [my] Father honour.--Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke [is] easy, and my burden is light.

What things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. --Being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.--Thou art no more a servant, but a son.

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.--For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only [use] not liberty for an occasion to the flesh.

Evening

I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel.

His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor.--Counsel [is] mine, and sound wisdom: I [am] understanding; I have strength.-- Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.-- Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

O LORD, I know that the way of man [is] not in himself: [it is] not in man that walketh to direct his steps.--Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This [is] the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.--Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.--He knoweth the way that I take.--Man's goings [are] of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?

Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me [to] glory.--This God [is] our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide [even] unto death.
