May the Word always lead us, guide us, and prepare for greater life with Christ
Sentences
“Think of some reading that makes you still, centered, or quiet. Take it from the shelf today.” As I read from “Quiet Minds: One-Minute Retreats from a Busy World” I thought about the bible. There are scriptures I have read for years, that I like to intentionally read over and over again. Yet there are others that I have to read more than once, and sometimes change the version to try grasp and understand what’s being spoken.
2 Timothy 3:16 reads, “All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness.” The us drown ourselves in the Word to learn, to be corrected, and preparation for whatever God is preparing for us and preparing us for along life’s journey.

The Spiritual Aspects of our Faith
“Circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law; but if you break the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. So, if those who are uncircumcised keep the requirements of the law, will not their uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision? Then those who are physically uncircumcised but keep the law will condemn you that have the written code and circumcision but break the law. For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is true circumcision something external and physical. Rather, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly, and real circumcision is a matter of the heart—it is spiritual and not literal. Such a person receives praise not from others but from God.”
May we each be internally transformed to believe and follow Christ so that He will be pleased with our way of living which is led by Him.
Youversion Verse of the Day John 20:18
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”; and she told them that he had said these things to her.
Let us always remember her encounter with Christ knowing He is not dead, but died for our sins and was raised again.
May the Word always lead us, guide us, and prepare for greater life with Christ, my friend.🙏🏽💚🦋🌈
