Thursday, January 5 — Psalm 4
1 Chronicles 5:1–22; Acts 9:36–10:8
Those who counsel peace have joy. Proverbs 12:20
Jesus said, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” Matthew 5:9
Dear Heavenly Father, our King, help us to remember that bestowing your peace and love on our enemies is more important than personal vengeance. Strengthen us so that we may truly become your children. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
