Theme of the Day
Love easily brings forth deeply hurt feelings.
Readings of the Day
Mark 12.1-27-The vineyard owner's slaves and son were beaten or killed by the evil tenants.
1 Kings 3-A mother out of love and compassion for her son, gives him away to the mother who robbed this very son from her, in order to save the life of her child.
Hosea 6.1-7.2-False love is like dew that goes away early and leaves behind pain to the Father.
John 14.1-7-Jesus is the way, and the truth, and the life.
God's Word of the Day
Now you understand the pain I have for My children. Learn from the pain of hurt feelings in forgotten love and focus your eyes on Jesus, the way, the truth and the life. See My compassion and love and live.
Story of the Day
The foundation of the house had been built on a solid base. This was a strong house and of good construction. But then someone came along and started pulling apart the house. A board here or there from the top of the house really didn't cause much damage. Sure when one of the boards from the roof were pulled the house formed a leak when it rained. But this didn't cause the house irreparable damage and could be easily fixed. But when stones from the foundation were pulled, the house began to teeter and totter. Too much of this would cause the house to fall. Too much of this would cause the house and home to cave. This had to stop and repairs were needed.
Prayer of the Day
Lord, You have constructed a house built on love. A house that has become home. Keep me from pulling the foundational stones of love from this house. Lead me in the defense of any one or any thing that causes damage to the foundation You have established. For You are the way the truth and the life. Your foundation is strong and in Your house I will live all the days of my life. ---Amen
