Prize what is excellent

So that you may surely learn to sense what is vital, and approve and prize what is vital, and approve and prize what is excellent and of real value [recognizing the highest and the best, and distinguishing the moral differences], and that you may be untainted and pure and unerring and blameless [so that with hearts sincere and certain and unsullied, you may approach] the day of Christ [not stumbling nor causing others to stumble]. May you abound in and be filled with the fruits of righteousness (of right standing with God and right doing) which come through Jesus Christ (the Anointed One), to the honor and praise of God [that His glory may be both manifested and recognized].  Philippians 1:10 (Amplified version)

My prayer for you today is that you would live a life that prizes, above all other things, your relationship with God and things of God.  That you would know what is vital for life.  That you would approve and prize what is excellent.  That you would easily distinguish the morals that you want to build your life upon in Christ.  I pray that you would remain untainted and that your heart would be sincere.  That you would not cause others to stumble in their walks.  That you would be filled to overflowing with the fruits of right standing before God.  That your life would honor and praise God in all that you do.  This is my prayer for you.
