March 14

Morning

Adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

Let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ. --Abstain from all appearance of evil.--If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]. . . But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or [as] a thief, or [as] an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.--Be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world.--Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: so shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. --Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things.

Evening

The words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.

Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth.--The letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

Christ . . . loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing.

Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed [thereto] according to thy word.--Thy word hath quickened me.-- Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.--I will not forget thy word.--I trust in thy word.--The law of thy mouth [is] better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.--I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.--How sweet are thy words unto my taste! [yea, sweeter] than honey to my mouth! Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
