HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

1-No matter how sinful you have been, it is never too late to humble yourself, turn to God and ask for forgiveness-

2-God's patience and mercy are beyond our ability to understand-

3-Most objects are not made to be idols, they simply become idols by the way people use them -

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

2-Did the gentiles ever pursue righteousness?

3-How are righteousness and good works interrelated?

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY    Mark 14:17-21

¹⁷ In the evening, Jesus went to that house with the twelve. ¹⁸ While they were all eating, Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, one of you will turn against me—one of you eating with me now.”

¹⁹ The followers were very sad to hear this. Each one began to say to Jesus, “I am not the one, am I?”
²⁰ Jesus answered, “It is one of the twelve—the one who dips his bread into the bowl with me. ²¹ The Son of Man will die, just as the Scriptures say. But how terrible it will be for the person who hands the Son of Man over to be killed. It would be better for him if he had never been born.”

 

PRAYER FOR THE DAY 

Father, we pray for those who are walking in the valley of the shadow of death with a loved one today. Give them deep abiding peace and calm assurance in place of worry and fear as they’re confronted with the circumstances that surround them this day.  We pray for their loved one who is waging war between life and death, that they will find a place of quiet rest near to Your heart, O God; a place where Your sweet Spirit ministers in ways where human words fall short.  Help us to trust You for that which we can’t understand and to search the Scriptures for that which You want us to more fully comprehend on this side about life and death.  In Jesus’ name we pray.  Amen.


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