I'VE LEARNED-When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for as long as you did-
 
DID YOU KNOW-Snow angels originated from medieval Jewish mystics who practiced rolling in the snow to purge themselves of evil urges-
 
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Why did the Magi think they could follow a star?
2-Did the Magi have any idea of  where the star would lead?

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY    Matthew 19:1-6
1 After Jesus said all these things, he left Galilee and went into the area of Judea on the other side of the Jordan River.2Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
 3 Some Pharisees came to Jesus and tried to trick him. They asked, "Is it right for a man to divorce his wife for any reason he chooses?"
 4 Jesus answered, "Surely you have read in the Scriptures: When God made the world, 'he made them male and female.'[a]5 And God said, 'So a man will leave his father and mother and be united with his wife, and the two will become one body.'[b] 6So there are not two, but one. God has joined the two together, so no one should separate them."

PRAYER FOR TODAY
Praying manFather, the Psalmist wrote that you “set the lonely in families”. It is a joy and privilege to love and to be loved, to care for others and to be cared for. Today we especially pray for our readers who are fathers attempting to raise young children in the ways of the Lord. May their walk and talk be exemplary and reflect that which is taught in Your Word. Grant them wisdom and endurance as they undergo the testings common to fathers who train and discipline their children to live responsibly, respectfully, and obediently toward the teachings within Your Word. May they equip their children with the example and teachings needed for their present life, for their adult years and for their life eternal. In Jesus’ name we pray.  Amen.

I WISH YOU LOVE IN YOUR HEART.....PEACE IN YOUR SOUL.....AND JOY IN YOUR LIFE.....ALWAYS!!!
