THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Jesus did not come to explain away suffering or remove it. He came to fill it with His presence. – Paul Claudel

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY

“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” --  Ephesians 3:16-21

TIME FOR PRAISE AND PRAYER

A Supporter: A supporter of WUAS has had a second leg amputated.  He is now wheel chair bound.  Although his attitude is good, I am sure he could use our prayers.

Daughter: My daughter began suddenly to have pain in her joints – so much so that she can hardly move.  Doctors are running test for Lyme’s disease, lupus and arthritis. Please keep her in your prayers.  Pray that the cause for this pain will be diagnosed.

COMMENTS:

·        Late in time, but hope is strong . . . growing spiritually as never before. Truth ready to bloom! Big thanks to the staff for their faithful “keeping on.”

·        The Ten Commandments presentation by Letty Kincaid truly gave me a different view of my life. My God bless you in everything you do in His name.

·        I requested the free book from the newspaper. This book is terrific and has taught me a lot. I am so glad I requested it.  I am definitely interested in the DVD.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

Life Is A Gift

Today before you think of saying an unkind word–
think of someone who can’t speak.

Before you complain about the taste of your food–
think of someone who has nothing to eat.

Before you complain about your husband or wife–
think of someone who is crying out to God for a companion.

Today before you complain about life–
think of someone who met death too soon.

Before you complain about your children–
think of someone who desires children but they’re barren.

Before you argue about your dirty house that someone didn’t clean or sweep–
think of the people who are living in the streets.

Before whining about the distance you drive–
think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.

And when you are tired and complain about your job–
think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another–
remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker.

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down–
put a smile on your face and thank God you’re alive and still around.

Life is a gift – Live it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it, and Fulfill it.
