SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY LUKE 21:20-28

Jerusalem Will Be Destroyed

²⁰ "When you see armies all around Jerusalem, you will know it will soon be destroyed. ²¹ At that time, the people in Judea should run away to the mountains. The people in Jerusalem must get out, and those who are near the city should not go in.²² These are the days of punishment to bring about all that is written in the Scriptures.²³ How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or have nursing babies! Great trouble will come upon this land, and God will be angry with these people. ²⁴ They will be killed by the sword and taken as prisoners to all nations. Jerusalem will be crushed by non-Jewish people until their time is over.

Don't Fear

²⁵ "There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars. On earth, nations will be afraid and confused because of the roar and fury of the sea. ²⁶ People will be so afraid they will faint, wondering what is happening to the world, because the powers of the heavens will be shaken.²⁷ Then people will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. ²⁸ When these things begin to happen, look up and hold your heads high, because the time when God will free you is near!"

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
