Greetings: God bless you this day:

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

Why does God not heal me? Did you ever wonder about that?

When we allow God to work, he can take our afflictions and

use them to accomplish his glory. That's just how his power

 works. God doesn't give us his grace and power so that we can 

 endure, but rather so that we can rise above our afflictions to

accomplish something for his kingdom. Our afflictions can be

transformed from a stumbling block to a stepping-stone.

(Rick Ezell-From Dot Barr)

SCRIPTURE:

I consider that all our present sufferings are not worth comparing

with the glory that will be revealed in us Romans 8:18

Paul, the writer of the above scripture, had an affliction that God

did not heal, but he gave him the power to rise above it. He will

give us the power and strength as well!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

Do you sometimes feel unworthy to pray?

(Kathy Lumbert)

SCRIPTURE:

Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee

and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and

thanked God for being such a good man. The tax collector

said, "God have mercy on me a sinner." Jesus said, "I tell

you the tax collector went home justified before God."

Luke 18:10-14 (Paraphrased)

Whatever your circumstances, God will HEAR your prayer!

Greetings: God bless you this day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

How often we wish for another chance

To make a new beginning,

A chance to blot out our mistakes

And change failure into winning.

Never give up in despair

And think that you are through,

For there's always a tomorrow

And a chance to start anew.

(Helen Steiner Rice)

SCRIPTURE:

Morning by morning he dispenses justice, and

every new day he does not fail. Zephaniah 3:5

This is a new day. God gave you this day as a gift,

make the most of it!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

How often do you thank God for his kindness?

Not often enough. But does our ingratitude

restrict his kindness? No. Because he is kind

even to people who are ungrateful and full of

sin. (Max Lucado-From Elva Smithson)

SCRIPTURE:

He is kind even to people who are ungrateful

and full of sin. Luke 6:35 (NCV)

One way we can show God we're grateful for

his kindness...pass it on. Show kindness to

everyone you meet today?

The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge.

(Author Unknown-From Carolyn Hicks)

My guilt has overwhelmed me like a burden too

heavy to bear. Psalm 38:4

Lay all your grudges, guilts and regrets at the feet

of Jesus. He carried a wooden cross, your burdens

are not too heavy for him!
