HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

2-Don't leave your happiness to destiny-

4-Happiness is a state of mind-

5-You are as happy as you make up your mind to be-

STRANGE THOUGHT-The batteries were given out free of charge-

I'VE LEARNED-To harvest later you must plant now-

DID YOU KNOW-Japan is the largest exporter of frogs' legs-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Did Jesus and his disciples regularly pray before eating food?

2-Where did Jesus and his disciples get their daily food from?

3-Did the disciples have to work for their food or did Jesus miraculously supply it?

4-Are most Christians legalistic to some degree?

5-The bible says that all who touched Jesus for healing were healed, so why is it not so today?

BIBLE TRIVIA-When Moses was in the tabernacle, where did God's voice come from?

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Romans 10:16-21

Father, we find direction and sufficient grace as we follow Psalm 27:14: “Wait on the Lord; be of good courage and He shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say on the Lord.” The Psalmist tells us twice in the same sentence to wait on You. We’re not to doubt, be despondent or give up in despair, but instead we are to go forward in faith, trusting You completely, since “no eye has seen, and no ear has heard what the Lord has in store for those who wait for Him.” Help us to endure the wait and enjoy our faith walk with You. Amen.

¹⁶ But not all the Jews accepted the good news. Isaiah said, "Lord, who believed what we told them?"¹⁷ So faith comes from hearing the Good News, and people hear the Good News when someone tells them about Christ.

¹⁸ But I ask: Didn't people hear the Good News? Yes, they heard—as the Scripture says:
"Their message went out through all the world;
Their words go everywhere on earth." — Psalm 19:4
¹⁹ Again I ask: Didn't the people of Israel understand? Yes, they did understand. First, Moses says:
"I will use those who are not a nation to make you jealous.
I will use a nation that does not understand to make you angry." — Deuteronomy 32:21
²⁰ Then Isaiah is bold enough to say:
"I was found by those who were not asking me for help.
I made myself known to people who were not looking for me." — Isaiah 65:1
²¹ But about Israel God says,
"All day long I stood ready to accept
People who disobey and are stubborn." — Isaiah 65:2

PRAYER FOR TODAY

I WISH YOU ENOUGH----
