Psalm 15: A man after God's own heart


Ps 15:1 ff
"Lord - who may dwell in your sanctuary?
Who may live on your holy hill?"

David writes a character sheet on God's kind of person. What a man after His own heart looks like. The Message Bible states it well.


God, who gets invited
to dinner at your place?
How do we get on your guest list?

"Walk straight,
act right,
tell the truth.

"Don't hurt your friend,
don't blame your neighbor;
despise the despicable.

"Keep your word even when it costs you,
make an honest living,
never take a bribe.

"You'll never get blacklisted if you live like this."



Character! God's concerned with it!

Lord, it's hard to try and get a perfect score. I so often miss the mark. Please help me & strengthen me to live life right.
