SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY
Hebrews 12:1-2 We are surrounded by a great
cloud of people whose lives tell us what faith means. So let us run the race
that is before us and never give up. We should remove from our lives anything
that would get in the way and the sin that so easily holds us back. 2 Let us look
only to Jesus, the One who began our faith and who makes it perfect. He suffered
death on the cross. But he accepted the shame as if it were nothing because of
the joy that God put before him. And now he is sitting at the right side of
God’s throne.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Father, help me to run the race with endurance with my eyes fixed on
Jesus. Help me resist the temptations of the world so that I may run a strong
race-
MAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE LOVE TO SHARE, HEALTH TO SPARE AND FRIENDS THAT CARE-
