\"coronavirus-acrostic-covid-19-by-noreen-roth\"<\/p>\n

My Mom<\/a> is pretty sharp. She made up a Bible verse acrostic to help herself and others reflect from the Psalms during this coronavirus pandemic. I’m impressed by her work. (I’m sure Dad would be properly proud of her.) I hope I’m still doing this well should I ever reach 87.5 years of age.<\/p>\n

C<\/strong><\/span>ommit thy way unto the Lord (Psalm 37:5).
\nO<\/strong><\/span> Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee (Psalm 5:3).
\nR<\/strong><\/span>ock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God (Psalm 62:7).
\nO<\/strong><\/span>h how great is thy goodness (Psalm 31:19).
\nN<\/strong><\/span>evertheless I am continually with thee (Psalm 73:23).
\nA<\/strong><\/span>s for God, his way is perfect (Psalm 18:30).
\nV<\/strong><\/span>oice of thanksgiving, and tell all thy wondrous works (Psalm 26:7).
\nI<\/strong><\/span> will love thee, O Lord, my strength (Psalm 18:1).
\nR<\/strong><\/span>est in the Lord, and wait patiently for him (Psalm 37:7).
\nU<\/strong><\/span>nto thee, O God, do we give thanks (Psalm 75:1).
\nS<\/strong><\/span>urely goodness and mercy shall follow me (Psalm 23:6).<\/div>\n
