his merciful love couldn’t have dried up.
They’re created new every morning.
How great your faithfulness!
I’m sticking with God (I say it over and over).
He’s all I’ve got left." Lamentations 3:23-24 for Wednesday, 26 & Thursday, 27 November 2014
Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
Be patient, therefore, beloved, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious crop from the earth, being patient with it until it receives the early and the late rains. You also must be patient. Strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near.(James 5:7-8, NRSV)
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
A waiting person is a patient person. The word patience means the willingness to stay where we are and live the situation out to the full in the belief that something hidden there will manifest itself to us.(Henri Nouwen)
Pray Together with Us:
O Lord, let us not live to be useless, for Christ's sake. Amen.(John Wesley)
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.(Philippians 4:4-7, NRSV)
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
In the original language, "he gave thanks" reads "eucharisteo." . . . The root word for eucharisteo is charis, meaning "grace." Jesus took bread and saw it as grace and gave thanks. He took the bread and knew it to be gift and gave thanks."(Ann Voskamp)
Pray Together with Us:
To God the Father, who first loved us
and made us accepted in the Beloved:
To God the Son, who loved us, and washed us
from our sins in his own blood;
To God the Holy Ghost, who sheds the love of God
abroad in our hearts,
Be all love and all glory,
From time and for eternity.(Thomas Ken)
