Heavenly Father, thank You for the saving blood of Jesus, and thank You that no one is too old or too young to hear and believe the truth of the gospel of grace - that Christ died for our sin according to the Scriptures - that He was buried and rose again according to the Scriptures, and that whosoever believes on Him will not perish but have everlasting life. Thank You in Jesus' name, AMEN.
Source: Verse of the day for Mark 10:14Lord Jesus, it says in Your Word, examine Yourself to see it you are in the faith. Lord, I realise that this is not talking to unbelievers but to all of us who are Your children in Christ Jesus. Lord, help me to examine myself, and all that I am learning from You and Your Word, so that I truly may say with conviction, "I know in Whom I have believed and am walking in the path on which He has placed me."
Keep me also from critical thoughts of others, and prevent me Lord, from having a spirit of control, or by pretending to hold others accountable to You, when the beam in my own eye is greater than the speck that is in my brothers’ eye. Keep me humble before Your throne of grace.
Thank You for all my Christian friends and family. Keep us all walking close to You in the days that lie ahead. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
