"May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer." -- Psalm 19:14

This is a prayer for all of us to have on our lips at all times.  Our mothers and fathers told us to think before we speak, much so that we would consider carefully what we were about to say so as to not look ignorant or be misunderstood.  But what if we took that concept and instead of "thinking" before we speak, we "pray" before we speak?  I believe that could change the world.  What to pray?  This very verse.  May the words of our mouths and the meditations of our hearts be always pleasing to God!

Readings:  Genesis 46:1- 47:31; Matthew 15:1-28; Psalm 19:1-14; Proverbs 4:14-19
