Sharing Today's Devotionals

Just wanted to share the scriptures, prayers and reflections that I had for today:

Read Psalm 63

Dear Lord,
Help us to never overlook our need for You, especially when we are abundantly blessed with prosperity.
Amen

Read Romans 5:6-11

Dear Lord,
Help us to always love and forgive each other, even our enemies.

Read Romans 4

We are considered "righteous" by our "faith" in Jesus Christ, not by what we do for Him.

We have right standing with God our Father (righteousness), because of the work Jesus did on the Cross, not because of anything we have done or will do.
Our only job requirement is to "believe". As we live our lives in faith, others will follow our witness.

Thank You Lord, for the honor and freedom to be able to read, study and reflect on Your Holy Word, the love letter that You personally wrote to us. I pray that we will continue to have that freedom here in our "nation, under God".
