HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Success is not the key to happiness, happiness is the key to
success-
2-It is not good to have zeal without knowledge-
3-A person's heart reflects who they are-
4-A single rose can be your garden, a single friend your world-
5-When you blame others, you give up your power to change-
STRANGE THOUGHT-While there is bad in the best of mankind, there is also
good in the worst-
I'VE LEARNED-Children need models, not critics-
DID YOU KNOW-A scallop has a total of thirty five eyes, which are all
blue-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Did the Garden of Eden have change of seasons?
2-Was suffering and death a part of the earth that God called very
good?
3-Were there carnivores on earth before Adam and Eve's sin?
4-Did the animals in Eden look like the animals of today?
5-Will those in heaven remember their lives on earth?
BIBLE TRIVIA-Who was reluctant to have Jesus wash his feet?
Today's answer- Peter John 13:6-9
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Acts 22:1-5
Paul said, “Brothers and
fathers, listen to my defense to you.” 2 When they heard him speaking
the Hebrew language,[a]
they became very quiet. Paul said, 3 “I am a Jew, born in Tarsus
in the country of Cilicia, but I grew up in this city. I was a student of
Gamaliel,[b]
who carefully taught me everything about the law of our ancestors. I was very
serious about serving God, just as are all of you here today. 4 I persecuted
the people who followed the Way of Jesus, and some of them were even killed. I
arrested men and women and put them in jail. 5 The high priest and the whole
council of elders can tell you this is true. They gave me letters to the
brothers in Damascus. So I was going there to arrest these people and bring them
back to Jerusalem to be punished.

PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, we thank You for the person of Jesus who showed us how to live a
life set apart for You and all the while endured loss, pain, temptation, and
other emotions common to mankind. When Jesus wept upon hearing of Lazarus’ death
He showed His humanity in a way that all of us who’ve suffered loss can relate.
He wept with those who wept and rejoiced with those who rejoiced. We too have
opportunity to share in the grief of others as we remind them that they are not
alone but have our prayerful and loving support as they endure their loss. Help
us to reach out and extend ourselves to those in need. In the name of Jesus we
pray. Amen.
