1-Speak the truth even if your voice shakes-

4-Act as if what you do makes a difference for it does-

5-Laughter is the brush that sweeps away the cobwebs of the heart-

 

STRANGE THOUGHT-An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing-

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY   Psalm 35:11-14

¹¹ Men without mercy stand up to testify.
    They ask me things I do not know.
¹² They repay me with evil for the good I have done,
    And they make me very sad.
¹³ Yet when they were sick, I put on clothes of sadness
    And showed my sorrow by fasting.
But my prayers were not answered.
¹⁴ I acted as if they were my friends or brothers.
I bowed in sadness as if I were crying for my mother.

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY 

Father, we worship You, the Lord of lords and King of kings. We travel back in time to that original Christmas when You sent forth Your One and only Son to redeem the world from sin. We are grateful for the amazing sacrifice You made on our behalf as we receive You into our heart, King of kings. May we never have a ho-hum attitude toward the greatest event that ever took place when You came to be our Saviour and Lord. Amen.



GREATLY BLESSED, HIGHLY FAVORED, IMPERFECT BUT FORGIVEN CHILD OF GOD
