Today’s Reading:
Psalm 12:1–4 (EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)

“Everyone lies to their neighbor; they flatter with their lips but harbor deception in their hearts.”
(Psalm 12:2)

This week’s EFKS theme:
Pride and Prejudice

A Thought for Today

Words can reveal the condition of the heart.

What This Means for Us Today

The psalm speaks of words used carelessly and pridefully.

Speech becomes a way to elevate ourselves rather than speak truth.

Pride often hides behind what we say.

God calls us back to sincerity and humility.

Carry This With You

Let your words reflect humility and truth.

A Simple Prayer

Lord, guide my words today.
Help me to speak with honesty and humility.

Today’s Invitation

Be mindful of your words today.
Choose truth over pride.
