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. Sunday, April 28, 2024
Today's Passage : Today's Passage :Born Again to a Living Hope Bible Verse:1 Peter 1:3-9 (ESV) "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls. " Message:
Today’s lesson describes the great joy that we feel, the enormous burden that Christ has lifted from us. We should never forget how lucky we are. When life throws us a curveball, or even a terrible tragedy, we have a ray of light that can always keep us from despair. Because Christ has promised that we will be okay. Nothing in the world can destroy our place in heaven. We have in our hearts a living hope. It cannot be destroyed, it cannot be sullied, and it never loses its power.
We do not simply have hope; Peter calls it a “living” hope. Our hope has a life of its own! Because our hope is not only in our hearts, it is in the Holy Spirit who lives with us, beside us in all that we do. Our hope cannot die because we have God living with us in this life. When we despair, even utterly, all we need to do is take a step back — or we might even fall backwards — and we will find a hope we do not understand.
We can praise God and live our lives in the beauty of holiness, loving God and forgiving our neighbors; any harm we might suffer will fade and disappear, but our life of light, truth, and indescribable happiness will endure forever. For our hope lives both within us and outside of us, imperishable.
Meditation : Prayer : Lord, in utter humility I thank you and glorify you, that you might hear the prayer of one so small as myself, amidst the billions of souls among billions of stars in one of billions of galaxies in your universe. Let me go forth in your peace, keeping your Spirit always in my mind; and bless me, I pray, that I might always follow your will and live in the radiance of your blessing........Amen |
