God's Word of the Day
You need not be lost and perish. Turn and see, I have come to you. Come and be part of My spiritual house.

Story of the Day
It started out pretty simple. Just a few stones connected together. A few stones tied into the cornerstone that anchored the entire structure. Then as time passed, there were more and more stones. There were furnishings built. There was electricity and water added. There was heating and cooling. Restroom fixtures were added. A kitchen and pantry installed. A library later was added. And all the books and magazines for reading. Furniture was placed in this place. All sorts of decorations and painting added. Sculptures and plants and flowers were brought in. This was a never ending process. All things put together with the cornerstone as the common link to everything that took place. Then it spread even further. The building and construction took place outside the building and spread throughout the world. This was a wonderful connection of gifts and blessings that ties always to the cornerstone. A host of blessings. All because of a cornerstone so lovingly placed.

Prayer of the Day
Lord, I give You thanks for saving me. I give You thanks, for I was perishing. As I go out to the east and to the west, I proclaim Your imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. For You have saved us. Build us into Your Holy House that our lives may come to be pleasing to You. ---Amen
