HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY
1-God's grace is a gift. We don't earn it but we can lose it-
2-Guilt can stir up repentance and renewal.. So in the right dosage, it is
a blessing-
3-Guilt, most often, is an unbearable burden-
4-God's final word on your life is grace-
5-We don't change God's intentions, but we can influence his actions by our
prayers-
STRANGE THOUGHT-What do you do when you see an endangered animal eating an
endangered plant?
I'VE LEARNED-Patience is not the ability to wait, it is how you behave
while you wait-
DID YOU KNOW-The expression "What in tarnation?" comes from the original
phrase "What in eternal damnation?"
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-The Bible says that when Christ appears "we shall be like him. What does
that mean"?
2-What is our "spirit"?
3-Why does our "flesh battle our spirit?
4-What does it mean to be "clothed in righteousness"?
5-Will we remember the day we die?
SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY Mark 10:46-52
46 Then they came to the town of Jericho. As Jesus was
leaving there with his followers and a great many people, a blind beggar named
Bartimaeus son of Timaeus was sitting by the road. 47 When he heard that Jesus
from Nazareth was walking by, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have
mercy on me!”
48 Many people warned the blind man to be quiet, but he
shouted even more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
49 Jesus stopped and said, “Tell the man to come here.”
So they called the blind man, saying, “Cheer up! Get to your feet. Jesus is calling you.” 50 The blind man jumped up, left his coat there, and went to Jesus.
51 Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?”
The blind man answered, “Teacher, I want to see.”
52 Jesus said, “Go, you are healed because you believed.” At once the man could see, and he followed Jesus on the road.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Father, we as followers of Christ must be
careful to follow the Bible’s pattern of sound teaching. At times we find
ourselves arguing with Your truths and teaching from Scripture, our thoughts
being at odds with Bible teaching that doesn’t fit in with the views and
lifestyles we’ve chosen which are patterned after the world’s thinking. Yet You
are the Author of truth, You know that which will bring us good and that which
will bring us harm. Help us not to read and interpret Scripture so that it
aligns with our view point, instead we want to align our view point in
accordance with the Scriptures. We want to love You with all our heart so that
we will follow the pattern of sound doctrine and walk in accordance with the
Scripture. Amen.
I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING!
