Set my feet upon the pathway of holiness, wisdom and righteousness, Oh Lord, that I may live a life well pleasing in Your Sight.

All things done to please men is like a vapor that quickly passes away and is remembered no more, but what pleases God never passes away.

The deeds of the wicked are punishable even by the law of men, how much more by the Law of God.
The judgment by men's law is for a brief season, the judgment by the law of God is eternal and final.

Brethren, if you must live your life being motivated by fear then fear Him who can destroy your body and soul more than them who can only take away your physical possessions.

Set your affections on things above where Jesus sits on the Right Hand of God.
When you are right with God you are right with the whole universe.
