Psalm 146

146:1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul!

146:2I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God all my life long.

146:3 Do not put your trust in princes, in mortals, in whom there is no help.

146:4 When their breath departs, they return to the earth; on that very day their plans perish.

146:5 Happy are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD their God,

146:6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps faith forever;

146:7 who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free;

146:8 the LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD lifts up those who are bowed down; the LORD loves the righteous.

146:9 The LORD watches over the strangers; he upholds the orphan and the widow, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.

146:10 The LORD will reign forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Praise the LORD!

Stuart's Saturday Miscellany

"Until this week, it was still possible to hope that Trump would be
remembered as a historical blip, an outsider who somehow turned a few
elections into a contest over his ideas and personality, before exiting
the political scene in disgrace. Today, it seems much more probable that
he has cemented his standing as the figurehead of a political movement
which will lastingly transform the politics of the US — and, perhaps,
much of the democratic world."

Whatever Happens, Love Thy Neighbor

Mark 12:28-34

12:28 One
of the scribes came near and heard them disputing with one another, and
seeing that he answered them well he asked him, "Which commandment is
the first of all?"

12:29 Jesus answered, "The first is, 'Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one;

12:30 you
shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul
and with all your mind and with all your strength.'

12:31 The second is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

12:32 Then
the scribe said to him, "You are right, Teacher; you have truly said
that 'he is one, and besides him there is no other';

12:33 and 'to
love him with all the heart and with all the understanding and with all
the strength' and 'to love one's neighbor as oneself' --this is much
more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."

12:34 When
Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far
from the kingdom of God." After that no one dared to ask him any
question.
