HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Small boys become big men through the influence of big men who care about
small boys-
2-A man's children and his garden both reflect the amount of weeding done
during the growing season-
3-A person who thinks logically provide a nice contrast to the real
world-
4-The larger the island of knowledge, the longer the shoreline of
wonder-
5-Sometimes the unseen limits imposed by a loving God protects the
foolhardy though they might not suspect it-
STRANGE THOUGHT-A clear conscience sometimes is the result of a bad
memory-
I'VE LEARNED-Jesus did not teach that a life of faith would be easy, but
the reward for endurance would be eternity with him-
DID YOU KNOW-Tigers have stripped skin, not just stripped fur-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Was Paul's name and fame still spreading during his 12 years of
absence?
2-Why did Barnabas approach Paul about joining his ministry team in
Antioch?
3-What do we know about Barnabas?
4-When did the name "The Way" stop being used as a name for Jesus'
followers?
5-In the early church, was the name "Christian" a complementary name or one
of insult?
BIBLE TRIVIA-What book of the Bible mentions a "priest forever, after the
order of Melchizedek"?
Yesterday's answer-Melchizedek Genesis 14:18
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Acts 7:35-38
35 “This Moses was the same man the two men of Israel
rejected, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and judge?’[a]
Moses is the same man God sent to be a ruler and savior, with the help of the
angel that Moses saw in the burning bush. 36 So Moses led the people out
of Egypt. He worked miracles and signs in Egypt, at the Red Sea, and then in the
desert for forty years. 37 This is the same Moses that said to the people of
Israel, ‘God will give you a prophet like me, who is one of your own
people.’[b]
38 This is the Moses who was with the gathering of the
Israelites in the desert. He was with the angel that spoke to him at Mount
Sinai, and he was with our ancestors. He received commands from God that give
life, and he gave those commands to us.
Father, the spiritual journey may have its twists and
turns, its potholes and inclines that obscure the finish line, but by faith I
will stay the course because You give me power when I feel faint and strength
when I am weak. Everlasting Father, Creator of the ends of the earth You do not
grow weary or faint; Your understanding is vast beyond measure and Your might
gives me strength when I grow weary and hope when I become discouraged helping
me to rise as though I have wings as eagles. Help me to soar above my troubles
and give flight to those worries that would otherwise weigh me down. I ask this
in the name of Jesus. Amen.
