Hymn of the Day
"I was there to hear your borning cry, I'll be there when you are old. I rejoiced the day you were baptized to see your life unfold. I was there when you were but a child, with a faith to suit you well; in a blaze of light you wandered off to find where demons dwell." ("Borning Cry" - Text-John C. Ylvisaker, b. 1937)
Readings of the Day
Romans 3.9-31-For we hold that a person is justified by faith apart from works prescribed by the law.
1 Samuel 12-Do not be afraid; you have done all this evil, yet do not turn aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart; and do not turn aside after useless things that cannot profit or save, for they are useless.
Psalm 57-For your steadfast love is as high as the heavens; your faithfulness extends to the clouds.
Luke 12.22-31-Instead, strive for his kingdom...
God's Word of the Day
You will encounter demons in your life. Turn away and in the faith I have provided, follow Me into My Kingdom.
Psalm of the Day
You are always with me.
I turn and You are there.
No matter where I am, I turn and You are there.
All my life You have been with me.
At my birth...baptism...all through life.
You are with me.
I wander off into the kingdom of demons.
I sin and smell the stench of what I have done.
There You are...gently pulling me away.
I turn and hear Your voice.
I know You are the King.
I turn and follow You into Your Kingdom.
I listen and serve You and those You give to me.
Together You take me each day into Your Kingdom.
For You have saved me.
You acted and saved me from my sinful self.
I will serve You each day.
As I follow You in Your Kingdom.
Today...tomorrow...forever.
You are always with me.
Prayer of the Day
Lord, guide me away from the demons I seek-forgive my sin-as I follow You this day into Your Kingdom to love and serve You and those You choose to give to me. ---Amen
