August 1 Memory Verse

I chose this verse as I begin thinking about getting ready for a new school year. With the special events in our family this summer it has seemed like I have been in a different county. Now I must go back to the everyday world of work. I want Jesus to be my reason for work and my greatest desire.

Psalms 73:23-26, TNIV

Yet I am always with you;
you hold me by my right hand.
You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will take me into glory.
Whom have I in heaven but you?
And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.
