The Winnipeg Police Service (WPS) says it has launched a crime suppression initiative in the William Whyte neighbourhood following a surge in violent crime in February.

The area saw three homicides last month—two on February 15 in the 300 block of Alfred Avenue and another on February 27 in the 500 block of Magnus Avenue. Police also responded to multiple firearm-related offences, arsons, and assaults, raising concerns among both the community and law enforcement.

Psalm 15:1

If you read Psalm 15 carefully, you will discover the entire song all hangs upon the first verse. Verse 1 is crucial in that it asks a probing question. That's today's devotional. David's answer forms the rest of the psalm. He then arrives at a wonderful promise. A Simple outline could be:

    I. Question: “Who may abide in Your tent?” (v. 1)
