"All who fear Jehovah God, who walk in his ways, are happy," Psalm 123:1.
When you, O God, are truly honored, you provide for us so that we enjoy the results of hard work. You make things go well for us. You bless our families: a husband and wife complement each other completely. Their children grow enriching that man and woman. When you, O God, are deeply respected, you bring your blessings to bear in our homes. As the years pass, you provide for sharing in your prosperity. When you, O God, are feared, you show us our children. And our grandchildren, too. (And even when hard times come, and we don't feel the blessings in the moment, we will still walk in your ways: we trust you.) Your peace prevails.
When we speak with a brother or sister today, we recognize the Lord who blesses beyond compare. Especially, if not in this world, in the age to come! And, together, we give thanks to God and walk humbly in his ways.
