First and foremost guard your heart,
Always remember it is your life;
Be perfect today and be set apart,
Love God and obey Him in Christ.
Above everything keep your focus pure,
Let no petty pursuits disturb your peace;
Be ready and willing to wholly surrender,
Lift your hands to the heavens and release.
Above all else take your stand on TRUTH,
Give no dirty demons access to your mind;
Be courageous when sin wants to rule over you,
Jesus Christ must reign on the throne of your life.
From start to finish faith is Life Blood,
That keeps the sanctified heart loving God;
Bought and secured by His Son on The Cross,
Nothing ever can move you from His Love.

You may have to force yourself to concentrate on God's words and instructions.
Disciplining yourself to read the Bible daily is not easy when
your emotions are interfering with your thoughts.
The Bible addresses this struggle:
your emotions are interfering with your thoughts.
The Bible addresses this struggle:
My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you,
turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding, and
if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look
for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will under-
stand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives
wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds
victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,
for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.
Then you will understand what is right and just and fair--every good path.
For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul"
turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding, and

My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. Do not let them
out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find
them and health to a man's whole body. Above all else, guard your heart,
out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find
them and health to a man's whole body. Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life."
Grant me discipline, Lord God. Amen.
