Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.
From Ephesians 5:19-21: “As you sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to one another, singing and making melody to the Lord in your hearts, giving thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, being subject to one another out of reverence for Christ.“
Envisioning love’s genuine patience . . . just where it shows up, may call upon tomorrow’s destiny.

Many things I have tried to grasp and have lost. That which I have placed in God’s hands I still possess.
From 1 John 2:15: “Do not love the world or the things in the world. The love of the Father is not in those who love the world.”
Sown seeds of Hope produce a significant outcome from a maturing harvest of Faith.

From Isaiah 61:1: “The spirit of the Lord God is upon me because the Lord has anointed me; He has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the prisoners.”
Every painful trial
Hijacking another heart
Spirit of God upon thee
His mercy shall impart
Comfort covers darkness
Hearing Father’s trusted voice
His deliverance at hand
Faithfulness shall rejoice
Each oak of righteousness
Raising Father’s grace-filled news
Salvation paid for through Christ
Redeemed through Heaven’s view
One more generation
Gathering upon God’s grace
Mourning replaced with gladness
Eternity’s embrace
From Isaiah 61:3: “To provide for those who mourn in Zion—to give them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit. They will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, to display His glory.”
Our Creator blesses every morning with another unique sunrise. At this very moment, just imagine how Eternity will appear.

All our fret and worry is caused by calculating without God.
From Psalm 37:8: “Refrain from anger and forsake wrath. Do not fret—it leads only to evil.”
Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) was a Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher. Following his death from an illness while in Egypt during World War I, his wife took on the task of transcribing the detailed notes she had written from his lectures and sermons. Gertrude Hobbs Chambers’ efforts resulted in the publication in 1924 of MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST. I frequently read from this devotional, and it has greatly deepened my faith and understanding of God’s Word.
