Relationships are built on our ability to trust one another. We are hurt when
people do not follow through with what they promise.
In Genesis 12:3 God promises Abraham that all nations would be blessed

seemed impossible. Abraham did not live to see the outcome of that promise.

Now faith is being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not
see. Hebrews 11:1
Although Abraham did not see the fulfillment of that promise, he believed God
would keep His promise. We will not always see the fulfillment of our prayers,
but we must keep the faith that God hears and answers... in His time!

SCRIPTURE:
Oh, come let us bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our maker.
Psalm 95:6
I don't think God is as much concerned with our position of worship, as He
is our love and devotion!

June 5
Greetings: God bless you this day!
THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
The light of God's love is much like the morning sunlight. It dispels
darkness from your heart and shadows of fear and discouragement.
(Moments of Peace in the Presence of God)
SCRIPTURE:
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.
1 John 4:16
God loves us enough to give His very best... should we not love Him
back the same way?

June 4
Greetings: God bless you this day!
THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Praise God we do not have to worry about the prophets of doom.
We know that no misguided politician or iron-fisted tyrant or
suicidal-terrorist can shake our firm foundation. That is because
our citizenship is not of this world; our allegiance lies with Jesus
who has already overcome the world. And even if the walls are
crumbling around us, we can have peace.
(Tammy Ditmore-Power for Today)
SCRIPTURE:
And the peace of God which transcends all understanding, will guard
your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7
Sam Shewmaker, a missionary to Africa, made this statement once,
"My birth certificate says I'm a citizen of Africa. My drivers license says
I'm a citizen of America, but my Bible tells me I'm a citizen of heaven.
I believe my Bible!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
When the eyes of the heart are opened, great things happen. When
the attitude changes, bigger blessings fall, And when we change
our perception, life becomes perfectly content.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things
will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33

Greetings: God bless you this day!
THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
David was a man after God's own heart. He suffered greatly, but after
each calamity, he counted it "joy in the Lord." Take David's attitude
to heart... be reminded to be filled with joy . (Vantage Point Devotional)
SCRIPTURE:
Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven. Matthew 5:12
For a Christian, being filled with joy is a choice; if we relied on our circumstances,
life would be a roll-a-coater of joy and despair; we rely on God not our
circumstances!

June 1
Greetings: God bless you this Lord's Day!
Welcome to June!
THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
God is our potter. We were created from the dust of the ground and
molded into the shape our Creator intended-in God's image. But
because of sin we become pots in need of reshaping. So to the Christian,
God reshaped us and gave us new life through the blood of His Son.
(The Upper Room)
SCRIPTURE:
O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay and you are the potter; we are
the work of your hand. Isaiah 64:8
And sometimes the pot becomes broken and if we want the Master Potter to
mend us, we must give Him all the pieces!
