Sunday’s Coming

Good Morning,

We are just outside Omaha. We leave tomorrow headed west, keep us in your prayers as we travel.

In my reading this morning was the following (if you have ever been in church with us you will recognize the scripture): by The Sower:


LET GOD BE THE JUDGE

Young Anthony was ending his prayers before leaving for school. “And, finally God, thank You for this beautiful day that You have given us.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
“But, Anthony,” protested his mother, “this is not going to be a beautiful day. There are large thunderstorms approaching.”
“I know, Mom,” replied Anthony. “Never judge a day by its weather,” he said as he ran out the door.

The Psalmist proclaimed, “This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!”

Sometimes when we get half way through a day we feel that there is nothing to rejoice about or to be thankful for. Our problems mount and their solutions evade us. Our plans are interrupted by meaningless demands that make no sense at all. Our decisions seem to be wrong no matter how hard we tried to get them right. Our sorrow overwhelms us and our guilt appears beyond His forgiveness. What then? Rejoice?
Makes no sense to most people.
But according to the Psalmist, that’s the thing to do.


Prayer: Thank You, God, for always being with us in all of our difficulties. Help us to hear Your voice and to accept Your grace as a solution to our problems. May we Praise You Today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.


Scripture for Today:

Psalm 118:24-28 ~ This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.


LaVon and I are truly thankful to God for each of you. Thank you for your continual support and interest in our ministry by investing yourself in many ways as partners with us: by prayer, e-mails, phone calls and your financial gifts. Without any of these we could not continue what God has called us to do and that is to share the living water with the world through the RV ministry.


Have a great day, love you, pass it on.

Don
