I am the city of the Lord

When your life feels in turmoil, where do you go?
When you read verses of scripture that contrast the godly with the wicked
.... and are unsure on which side you fall, what do you do?

Confess

But when the heavens feel like brass, how do you pray?

Psalm 101:

I will sing of your love and justice, Lord.
......I will praise you with songs.
I will be careful to live a blameless life—
......when will you come to help me?
I will lead a life of integrity
......in my own home.
I will refuse to look at
......anything vile and vulgar.
I hate all who deal crookedly;
......I will have nothing to do with them.
I will reject perverse ideas
......and stay away from every evil.
I will not tolerate people who slander their neighbors.
......I will not endure conceit and pride.
I will search for faithful people
......to be my companions.
Only those who are above reproach
......will be allowed to serve me.
I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house,
......and liars will not stay in my presence.
My daily task will be to ferret out the wicked
......and free the city of the Lord from their grip.

I am the city of the Lord.

Make me free.
Keep me free.
