SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY   Acts 28:7-11

⁷ There were some fields around there owned by Publius, an important man on the island. He welcomed us into his home and was very good to us for three days. ⁸ Publius’ father was sick with a fever and dysentery.^[a] Paul went to him, prayed, and put his hands on the man and healed him. ⁹ After this, all the other sick people on the island came to Paul, and he healed them, too. ^10-11 The people on the island gave us many honors. When we were ready to leave, three months later, they gave us the things we needed.

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY 

Father, as we give praise to You we are offering our heartfelt thanks for who You are and all that You do on our behalf. As we mature in our Christian walk we realize that there are many occasions when we must offer a sacrifice of praise since it doesn’t always come easily nor often enough. It is in those circumstances that we willfully choose to praise You out of obedient hearts desirous of pleasing You and glorifying Your name. May our words be fruitful and our thoughts praiseworthy in the name of Jesus we pray.  Amen.


MAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE LOVE TO SHARE, HEALTH TO SPARE AND FRIENDS THAT CARE!
