thoughts-sian: Pleasing God

Daily

Pray
Open my lips, O Lord,
and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from your presence
and take not your holy spirit from me.
Give me the joy of your saving help again
and sustain me with your Spirit.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen
(From Psalm 51)

One or more of the readings for the day.

Pray
Almighty God,
give us grace to cast away the works of darkness
and to put on the armour of light,
now in the time of this mortal life,
in which your Son Jesus Christ came to us in great humility;
that on the last day,
when he shall come again in his glorious majesty
to judge the living and the dead,
we may rise to the life immortal;
through him who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.Amen

Pleasing God

2 Kings 22: 1-13

I sometimes think that in reading the books of Kings and Chronicles I concentrate too much on good king, bad king. Maybe even concentrating on the evil rather than the good.
Josiah insisted on honest dealing. He reintroduced the people to God's way of living. He wanted to please God and live according to his ways.
How much do I actually want to PLEASE God?
