Psalm 18:1-2
I will love thee, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
What of Today’s Verse…
We sing it and we say it in our public prayers: “Father, God, we love you.” But notice very carefully the beginning phrase of our verse. “I love you, O Lord…” Even in public, community worship, we are taught the importance of a personal expression of love to God. When is the last time you told the Creator of the universe, “I love you!”
Let Us Pray:
Father in heaven, I love you. I love you because you are more than worthy of my love. I love you because you have first loved me. I love you because you sent your son to be my big brother and pay the price for my adoption into your family. I love you because of your faithfulness. I love you because you have permitted me in your grace to love you. In the name of Jesus I thank you. Amen.’
Words Of Wisdom
I Care
I live and give from the sacredness of my soul.
I take a proactive role in supporting my health and well-being. I include healthful, physical activities in my day’s schedule. I take time to emotionally connect with my feelings, to energize my mind. I pray and meditate, receiving guidance, enjoying peace of mind, and attaining spiritual growth.
With these practices, I not only contribute to my own healing, I also have the strength to support others. Offering prayer, giving physical assistance, contributing time or resources to individuals or organizations–all this allows me to live and give from the sacredness of my soul. With this intention, I have a positive effect on the lives of others.
What an important contribution caring people are making in all areas of the world. We are God’s family, caring about and for one another in loving, meaningful ways.
“He put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.”–Luke 10:34
