Lord, answer me because your love is so good. Turn to me because you are so kind.

I can’t decide between the two. I long to leave this world and be with Christ. That is better by far.

Lord, open my lips so that I can speak. Then my mouth will praise you.

His anger lasts for only a moment. But his favor lasts for a person’s whole life. Weeping can stay for the night. But joy comes in the morning.

Christ has paid the price for you. So use your bodies in a way that honors God.

So let us never stop offering to God our praise through Jesus. Let us talk openly about our faith in him. Then our words will be like an offering to God.

Brothers and sisters, God has shown you his mercy. So I am asking you to offer up your bodies to him while you are still alive. Your bodies are a holy sacrifice that is pleasing to God. When you offer your bodies to God, you are worshiping him in the right way.

In the same way, the tongue is a small part of a person’s body. But it talks big. Think about how a small spark can set a big forest on fire.The tongue is also a fire. The tongue is the most evil part of the body. It makes the whole body impure. It sets a person’s whole way of life on fire. And the tongue itself is set on fire by hell.People have tamed all kinds of wild animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures. And they still tame them.But no one can tame the tongue. It is an evil thing that never rests. It is full of deadly poison.With our tongues we praise our Lord and Father. With our tongues we curse people. We do it even though people have been created to be like God.Praise and cursing come out of the same mouth. My brothers and sisters, it shouldn’t be this way.

Because you are human, you find this hard to understand. So I am using an everyday example to help you understand. You used to give yourselves to be slaves to unclean living. You were becoming more and more evil. Now give yourselves to be slaves to right living. Then you will become holy.

Tell the Lord you are turning away from your sins. Return to him. Say to him,“ Forgive us for all our sins. Please be kind to us. Welcome us back to you. Then our lips will offer you our praise.

I cried out to him with my mouth. I praised him with my tongue.

Lord, many are asking,“ Who will make us successful?” Lord, may you do good things for us.

You have given him blessings that will never end. You have made him glad and joyful because you are with him.

So my heart will sing your praises. I can’t keep silent. Lord, my God, I will praise you forever.
