Dear
Friend,
If you do not already have a habit of gathering daily manna the first thing in the morning (we can look at the example given to us in Exodus 16 and find the pattern for make it a habit. Establish your life and your schedule to allow you the necessary time to do your daily collection first thing every morning to give you the strength to make it through the day. And remember that today’s manna will not be sufficient for tomorrow; tomorrow’s manna must be collected tomorrow morning.

Today's Passage : Today's Passage :I am with You Only a Little Longer
Bible Verse:John 13:31-35 (ESV)
"At the last supper, when Judas had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once.
Little children, I am with you only a little longer. You will look for me; and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, 'Where I am going, you cannot come.' I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”"
Message:
So often we forget Christ's words when he was about to depart. The basic commandment He gave us was to love each other. And it is unremittingly important to remember this. Every tiny scrap of hatred from a person or organization describing themselves as “Christian” is amplified a hundred times by its foes.
There are, inevitably, disputes about all sorts of things. But it is often better to give ground, especially when you are feeling emotional — angry, defensive, or self-righteous — than to break or even appear to break the basic commandment, to love your neighbor as you love yourself.
Christ says that this is how people will know that someone is His disciple, that we should love one another as much as He loved us. And since His love included hanging nailed to a cross in the hot Judean sun for hour after hour, until He died . . . well, that's a lot of love.
Meditation
:
Prayer :
Finally, may I go forth filled with the joy and confidence of your Spirit; and may everything I do this day, in word or deed, be done in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.......Amen
