BIBLE TRIVIA

Who said   Your guards are like locusts.
    Your officers are like swarms of locusts
    That hang on the walls on a cold day.
    When the sun comes up, they fly away, 
    And no one knows where they have gone.

 

Answer for the day        Nahum

 

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY

Matthew 23:7-12   ^7 "They love people to greet them with respect in the marketplaces, and they love to have people call them ‘Teacher.’⁸ “But you must not be called ‘Teacher,’ because you have only one Teacher, and you are all brothers and sisters together. ⁹ And don’t call any person on earth ‘Father,’ because you have one Father, who is in heaven. ¹⁰ And you should not be called ‘Master,’ because you have only one Master, the Christ. ¹¹ Whoever is your servant is the greatest among you. ¹² Whoever makes himself great will be made humble. Whoever makes himself humble will be made great."

 

PRAYER FOR THE DAY

 

Father, give me the humility and the vision to see around me the constant reminder that I am nothing without you-

 

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