HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Confidence comes from not always being right, but from not fearing to be
wrong-
2-The only one who can limit your possibilities is you-
3-Accept modestly, surrender gracefully-
4-He who establishes his argument by noise and command shows that his
reason is weak-
5-What is right with America is the willingness to discuss what's wrong
with America-
STRANGE THOUGHT-A telephone greeting you hope you never get-"Thank you for
calling the incontinence hotline. Can you please hold?"
I'VE LEARNED-One sin makes a mockery of Jesus' sacrifice-
DID YOU KNOW-Reindeer like to eat bananas-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Were Jesus' mother and siblings present with the waiting 120 believers in
the upper room?
2-If Jesus' mother and siblings were in the upper room when the Holy Spirit
came, did they speak in unknown languages?
3-Were only Jewish believers a part of the 120 people waiting for the Holy
Spirit to come on the upper room?
4-Why did the Holy Spirit come to the 120 people on the day of
Pentecost?
5-Didn't Jesus' mother and others have the Holy Spirit with them prior to
the upper room experience?
BIBLE TRIVIA-What priest of Baal was killed in Jerusalem when a reform
movement threw out all the idols?
Yesterday's answer-Jehoiada 2 Kings 11:17-20
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Acts 5:27-32
27 The
soldiers brought the apostles to the meeting and made them stand before the
leaders. The high priest questioned them, 28 saying, “We gave you strict
orders not to continue teaching in that name. But look, you have filled
Jerusalem with your teaching and are trying to make us responsible for this
man’s death.”
29 Peter and the other apostles answered, “We must obey God, not human authority! 30 You killed Jesus by hanging him on a cross. But God, the God of our ancestors, raised Jesus up from the dead! 31 Jesus is the One whom God raised to be on his right side, as Leader and Savior. Through him, all people could change their hearts and lives and have their sins forgiven. 32 We saw all these things happen. The Holy Spirit, whom God has given to all who obey him, also proves these things are true.”
PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, You supply us with many opportunities to
be a witness for Your kingdom. We must make the most of these opportunities to
be light and salt in this darkened world. Since our lives are the “only Bible
that some people read” we must be careful of what we say and do. May our
attitudes reflect that of Christ and our words bring truth, hope and guidance to
those traveling on the broad road that leads to destruction. By the power of
Your Holy Spirit we can make a difference to those whose path we cross today.
Amen.
SMILE, LAUGH, FORGIVE, BELIEVE AND LOVE, OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
