Proverbs 16:32-33, 18:1
Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city. The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord. An unfriendly man pursues selfish ends; he defies all sound judgment.

Isaiah 41:8-14
"But you, O Israel my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, you descendants of Abraham my friend, I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, "You are my servant"; I have chosen you and have not rejected you. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish. Though you search for your enemies, you will not find them. Those who wage war against you will be as nothing at all. For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. Do not be afraid, O worm Jacob, O little Israel, for I myself will help you," declares the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

Psalm 8
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
You have set Your glory above the heavens. From the lips of children and infants You have ordained praise because of Your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
When I consider the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place, what is man that You are mindful of him, the son of man that You care for him? You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor.
You made him ruler over the works of Your hands; You put everything under his feet: all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
Today I was studying for my final in Business Law. Our other tests were online, and he opened them up through today for us to look at them. I was going to look at them tomorrow because I had forgotten that they were only open through today. At about 10:30 pm I remembered that they were only open through today and got online to look at them. When I got done at 11:03, they were already closed. There is no doubt in my mind that God reminded me to look at those tests just in the nick of time. Even 15 minutes later, and I wouldn't have had time to look at both of them. Thank You God!!
