SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY   John 4:1-4

¹ The Pharisees heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more followers than John,² although Jesus himself did not baptize people, but his followers did.³Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard about him, so he left Judea and went back to Galilee.⁴ But on the way he had to go through the country of Samaria.

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. I meditate on Your age-old laws; O Lord, they comfort me. Your principles have been the music of my life throughout the years of my pilgrimage. You have done many good things for me, Lord, just as You promised. I used to wander off until You disciplined me, but now I closely follow Your Word. You are good and do only good; teach me Your principles through Christ Jesus our Lord, in whose name we pray. Amen.

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