We need to honor and protect God’s holy name, and resolve to use it only when we are addressing Him in prayer or speaking of Him. His name should never be used in a selfish way, it should never become just another flippant phrase whether said by lip or in a text message: both are disrespectful.

The Almighty God is ever present to faithfully honor His promises of covenant and mercy.

God, in His perfect wisdom, knows what makes a good leader: character, faith, and wisdom.

We must keep in mind that positive emotions like joy and gladness do not exclusively belong to those with a greater affinity for optimism.
