The lowest station in the Lord's house is better than the highest position among the godless. To bear burdens and open doors for the Lord is more honor than to reign among the wicked. Every man has his choice, and this is ours. God's worst is better than the devil's best.

What I often crave and eat as a homemade meal; arugula (I used to dislike it before discovering what a difference it makes drizzling it in balsamic glaze and it's amazing piled on pizza, too, with balsamic and/or dressing); fried egg; toast (garlic sourdough or pumpernickel rye); avocado; tomato.

Blessed is everyone who blesses you, O Israel, and cursed is everyone who curses you.

What is the "therefore" there for? The preceding verse: I have set the LORD always before me; because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved. v. 8

The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones. Then He caused me to pass by them all around, and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and indeed they were very dry.  And He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”

So I answered, “O Lord God, You know.”

Then He said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They indeed say, ‘Our bones are dry, our hope is lost, and we ourselves are cut off!’ Therefore prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, O My people, I will open your graves and cause you to come up from your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O My people, and brought you up from your graves. I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken it and performed it,” says the Lord.'

Ezekiel 37:1-3, 11-14

If Christ has died for me, ungodly as I am, without strength as I am, then I cannot live in sin any longer, but must arouse myself to love and serve Him who has redeemed me.
