Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
You were taught to put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.[Ephesians 4:22-24, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
Christian love draws no distinction between one enemy and another, except that the more bitter our enemy's hatred, the greater his need of love. Be his enmity political or religious, he has nothing to expect from a follower of Jesus but unqualified love. In such love there is not inner discord between the private person and official capacity. In both we are disciples of Christ, or we are not Christians at all.[Dietrich Bonhoeffer]
Pray Together with Us:
Dear Father, who has all things made,
And cares for them all,
There's none too great for your great love,
Nor anything too small.
If you can spend such tender care
On things that grow so wild,
How wonderful your love must be
for me, your little child.[G. W. Briggs]
