Today Is The Tomorrow You Worried About Yesterday
(So) do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble. Matthew 6:34 AMPC Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. God got you through it. Trust Him for tomorrow....
All Accounted For
By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit entrusted to you. 2 Timothy 1:14 In April of 458 BC, as Ezra was getting ready to take a group of exiles from Babylon back to Jerusalem, he “set apart twelve of the leading priests” (Ezra 8:24) and handed...
This Is The Day The Lord Hath Made
Remember the Sabbath day, and keep it holy. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and consecrated it. Exodus 20:8, 11 NRSV As with all God’s laws, the...

Shabbat Shalom
Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the Lord your God has commanded you. You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath day of rest dedicated to the Lord your God. Deutronomy 5:12-14 NLT We do not rest on the Sabbath so...
Love Made Manifest
God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love. Not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. 1 John 4:9-10 NLT
Orientation
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 Being unhappy is the easy way out.
