Run with endurance the race God has set before you
Reach outward to others
Reach upward to the Lord
Read and study and meditate on His Holy Word
Receive God’s instructions and discipline lovingly
Regard  others the same way you would like to be regarded (or treated)
Repent  of your sins
Receive the gift of salvation
Reflect on God’s unfailing, never ending love for you
Remember  the Bible stories, the parables of Jesus
Resist   the desire to hurt another, especially a loved one
Rest in the Lord, body and soul
Return  to your first love if you have fallen away
Robe yourself in the righteousness of God
Rejoice in the Lord always

Abide in the Lord and He will abide in you
Abstain , remove yourself from all appearances of evilness
Always  delight yourself in the Lord
Answer truthfully, honestly, as the Holy Spirit directs
Ask, make petitions to the Lord, seeking His answer and then wait for His response in His time

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is in the future. Live in the present. Live for today.                     

 Your life is but a vapor

Years  come and go – to God a day could be like a thousand years
Joy  fills our hearts with praise and thanksgiving.
