Tuesday Scripture and Prayer: Psalm 16
God Sets the Boundaries
-----------------
Lord, you alone are my portion and my cup;
you make my lot secure.
Even the [social distancing] lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
nor will you let your faithful one see decay.
You make known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
------------------
God, you have blessed me with a place in this land.
I have not earned this.
You have given me the place I stand as my inheritance.
Here I stand, and I shall not be moved.
Even in times of social distance, you have given me a pleasant life, and you have eternal pleasures in store.
Thank you Daddy.
