4-God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience but shouts in our pain-

STRANGE THOUGHT-He who wants to keep his garden tidy doesn't reserve a plot for the weeds-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

2-The offspring of the angelic/human marriages called Nephilim are called "the heroes that were of old, warriors of renown".  What is this referring to?

Answer for today    Samuel     1 Samuel 8:13

 

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY    Luke 8:16-18

¹⁶ “No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a bowl or hides it under a bed. Instead, the person puts it on a lampstand so those who come in will see the light. ¹⁷ Everything that is hidden will become clear, and every secret thing will be made known. ¹⁸ So be careful how you listen. Those who have understanding will be given more. But those who do not have understanding, even what they think they have will be taken away from them.”

 

PRAYER FOR THE DAY 

Father, it is only through the sacrificial blood of Your Son that my sins are forgiven. My guilty stains are plunged into the bottom of the ocean never to resurface again. All the adjectives in one’s vocabulary cannot adequately describe the depth of my gratitude for such a complete and selfless act of love. Your redeeming blood sacrifice frees us from the penalty of sin in this life and for all eternity. We thank You for Jesus who freely shed His blood on our behalf.  Amen.


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