Morning

When thou hast eaten and art full, . . . thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.

Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God.--One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, And fell down on [his] face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where [are] the nine? There are not found returning to give glory to God, except this stranger.

For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if received with thanksgiving: for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.--He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks.--The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.

Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, [bless] his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, . . . who forgiveth all thy iniquities; . . . who crowneth thee with loving kindness and tender mercies.

De 8:10,11 Lu 17:15-18 1Ti 4:4,5 Ro 14:6 Pr 10:22 Ps 103:1-4

Evening

Jesus . . . was moved with compassion toward them.

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.-- We have not an high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but who was in all points tempted as [we are, yet] without sin.--Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is beset with infirmity.--He cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour? Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly [is] ready, but the flesh [is] weak.

Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him. For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are] dust.

Thou, O Lord, [art] a God full of compassion, and gracious, long suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth. O turn to me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
