What to Do
January 5-6
Grabbing a notebook I decided to launch out on a 21 Day Spiritual Makeover. "They say" (my husband and I always laugh, wondering who "they" are) it takes 21 days to make a habit, so we shall see how long this lasts. Each day I plan to write down the Biblegateway Verse for the day, read a short devotional (or 2, or 3, or 4), work on an ongoing Bible Study, commit to listen to at least one praise song and spend time in listening prayer.
I also made a column I called "Kingdom Investments" and will record ways I invest in my marriage, children/grandchildren and others.
Micah 6:8 was a great verse on Biblegateway in The Message translation to start off with yesterday;
But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do, what God is looking for in men and women.
It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor, be compassionate and loyal in your love,
And don't take yourself too seriously-take God seriously.

"The Proof of Your Love" by For King and Country

Lyrics
If I sing but don't have love I waste my breath with every song
I bring an empty voice, a hollow noise. If I speak with a silver tongue
Convince a crowd but don't have love I leave a bitter taste with every word I say
So let my life be the proof, the proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof, the proof of Your love
If I give to the need soul but don't have love then who is poor?
It seems all the poverty is found in me.
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died Love is sacrifice
Oh, let my life be the proof, the proof of Your love
When it's all said and done WHen we sing our final song Only love remains Only love remains
Let my life be the proof, the proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof, the proof of Your love
