Remember your word to your servant, in which you have made me hope. This is my comfort in my affliction, that your promise gives me life. The insolent utterly deride me, but I do not turn away from your law. When I think of your rules from of old, I take comfort, O LORD. Hot indignation seizes me because of the wicked, who forsake your law. Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my sojourning. I remember your name in the night, O LORD, and keep your law. This blessing has fallen to me, that I have kept your precepts.

Lord, it is hot indignation and sorrow for those who not only forsake Your law but deny its power. The blessing of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit is the birthright of all who claim loyalty to You but denied by those who reject Your grace. How can the message reach them as it reached Ben yesterday? There was no preaching, no alter call, just a group of men discussing what it meant to live in Your Kingdom. And suddenly, a lost lamb was crying at the sheepfold gate. Praise You, our Lord and Master, one lamb, entered the fold.
