God
is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as
you have helped his people and continue to help them.
Hebrews
6:10
New
International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE...
So
much assurance in such a short verse! God is not unjust -- boy is that an
understatement. If he produced the atoning sacrifice for our sins, what will he
deny us if we seek after him? He will not forget our work and love -- an
eternal record of the good we have done! When we help our brothers and sisters
in Christ, we bless him! We are HIS people!! That's real motivation to keep on
maturing in Christ.
MY PRAYER...
God,
you are so gracious. Thank you. Words cannot express my joy at hearing such a
simple and profound statement describing your virtues. I am so glad I am your
child. Through my brother Jesus I pray. Amen.
GOD’S VALUE SYSTEM
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Keep
me as the apple of your eye...”
(Psalm
17:8, NIV)
TODAY’S WORD
In
this day and age, people are considered to be important for so many different
reasons &mdaash; titles, position, possessions, where you go, what you
drive. But God’s value system is very different from the value system of the
world. God cherishes and values you so much simply because He made you. You are
His beloved creation — the apple of His eye; the center of His world!
If
you’ve ever thought that God has too many other important things on His plate
to be concerned with you and your life, know this today — you are God’s number
one priority. And, there’s nothing you can do to be more important or less
important to Him. He values you today, and your value will never change. You
are significant. Your life is significant. The things that concern you, concern
God. He carefully watches over every detail of your life, and there is nothing
too big or too small for His attention.
Today,
find peace and security in God’s love for you. Don’t be afraid to take your
concerns and cares to Him. He loves it when you come to Him, and He’s ready to
receive you with open arms because you are the apple of His eye!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father
in heaven, thank You for loving me today. Thank You for keeping me the apple of
Your eye. I open my heart and mind to You and cast every care on You. I receive
Your love for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
