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 Monday, 1 December 2014
Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
We always give thanks to God for all of you and mention you in our prayers, constantly remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. For we know, brothers and sisters beloved by God, that he has chosen you, because our message of the gospel came to you not in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction; just as you know what kind of persons we proved to be among you for your sake. And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for in spite of persecution you received the word with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit, so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.[1 Thessalonians 1:2-7, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die.[Dietrich Bonhoeffer]
Pray Together with Us:
O Lord God,
Great is the misery that has come upon me;
My cares would overwhelm me,
I know not what to do.
O God, be gracious unto me and help me.
Grant me strength to bear what you send
and let not fear rule over me.
As a loving Father, take care of my loved ones . . . .
O merciful God, forgive me all
the sins I have committed against you,
and against my fellow me.
I trust in your grace and commit
my life wholly into your hands.
So do with me as seems best to you and as is best for me.
Whether I live or die, I am with you,
and you are with me, my God.
Lord, I wait for your salvation.[Dietrich Bonhoeffer]
