1 July

Morning:

The fruit of the Spirit is . . . goodness.

Be ye . . . followers of God, as dear children.--Love your

enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate
you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute
you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in
heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the
good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.--Be ye
therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

The fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness and

righteousness and truth.

After that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward
man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done,
but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of
regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; ehich he shed on
us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour.--The LORD [is]
good to all: and his tender mercies [are] over all his works.--
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all,
how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Ps 145:9 Ro 8:32
Evening:

Ebenezer, . . . Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.

I was brought low, and he helped me.--Blessed [be] the LORD,

because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. The LORD
[is] my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I
am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my
song will I praise him.

[It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in

man. [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence
in princes.--Happy [is he] that [hath] the God of Jacob for his
help, whose hope [is] in the LORD his God.--He led them forth by
the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.--
There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had
spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked
ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.--Because thou hast been my
help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
