BIBLE TRIVIA-"We write you now about what has always existed, which we have heard, we have seen with our own eyes, we have looked at, and we have touched with our hands. We write to you about the Word that gives life" is the first verse of chapter 1 of what book of the Bible?  

Answer for today        1 John

 

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY     2 Corinthians 9:13-14

¹³ It is a proof of your faith. Many people will praise God because you obey the Good News of Christ—the gospel you say you believe—and because you freely share with them and with all others. ¹⁴ And when they pray, they will wish they could be with you because of the great grace that God has given you.

 

PRAYER FOR THE DAY

 

Father, thank you for your example of giving.  Help me to be a generous giver so others will see You and You will be glorified.  Amen!

 

I PRAY THAT GOD GIVES YOU STRENGTH IN YOUR STRUGGLE, PEACE IN YOUR PAIN, AND VICTORY IN YOUR VALLEY-
