HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal-
2-Marriage should be a love affair (why isn't it)-
3-We usually do not value the things that are given to us too freely-
4-God didn't call us to leave the world but did call us to come unto him-
5-An unreconciled relationship breeds sores that refuse to heal even in death-
STRANGE THOUGHT-The ultimate goal of frugality is generosity-
I'VE LEARNED-Free your mind from worries and things you can do nothing about-
DID YOU KNOW-Four thousand people are injured by teapots every year-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Is God trying to speak to us through all the calamities of nature or is he showing us his anger-
2-When the earth is to be destroyed, will it be by man made technology or by natural causes such as earthquakes or volcanoes?
3-When the Bible speaks of the earth "being destroyed" does it mean change the way it looks or eliminated totally?
4-Can we envision a sinless existence?
5-Will we have assignments in heaven?
BIBLE TRIVIA-Who heard the voice of Jesus many months after Jesus' ascension to heaven?
Yesterday's answer-Isaiah 29:4
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY 1 Corinthians 4:8-13
8 You think you already have everything you need. You think you are rich. You think you have become kings without us. I wish you really were kings so we could be kings together with you.9 But it seems to me that God has put us apostles in last place, like those sentenced to die. We are like a show for the whole world to see—angels and people.10 We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are very wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You receive honor, but we are shamed.11 Even to this very hour we do not have enough to eat or drink or to wear. We are often beaten, and we have no homes in which to live.12 We work hard with our own hands for our food. When people curse us, we bless them. When they hurt us, we put up with it.13 When they tell evil lies about us, we speak nice words about them. Even today, we are treated as though we were the garbage of the world—the filth of the earth.
PRAYER FOR TODAY

Praying man Father God, we receive Your Holy Word through faith to be the very words You want to speak to us. You used ordinary men who followed an extraordinary Savior to communicate to us that which You want us to read and to live by. It is a living book that shows us through history those who have walked the path before us. It is an instruction manual revealing the way we are to live. And it is a book of unending hope where miracles unfold, lives are restored, sins are forgiven and heaven is waiting for those who earnestly follow Christ. Thank You for Your Scriptures, Your vital urgent Word that is like a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. Amen.

LIVE SIMPLY! LOVE GENEROUSLY! CARE DEEPLY! SPEAK KINDLY! LEAVE THE REST WITH GOD!!
