Col. 1:3
We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you
Psalm 39:1-5
I said, “I will guard my ways,
that I may not sin with my tongue;
I will guard my mouth with a muzzle,
so long as the wicked are in my presence.”
2
I was mute and silent;
I held my peace to no avail,
and my distress grew worse.
3
My heart became hot within me.
As I mused, the fire burned;
then I spoke with my tongue:
4
“O Lord, make me know my end
and what is the measure of my days;
let me know how fleeting I am!
5
Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths, and my lifetime is as nothing before you.
