Today's Verse: Ephesians 4:15

Sunday, April 30, 2006

Speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Speaking the truth is hard enough. You mean I have to do it in love? Yes, if I am to be Christ's man or woman, I must speak to others as he did.

My Prayer...

Father, forgive me for the bitterness in my heart and unfairness on my lips. Through your Spirit, help me better use my speech to bless others and glorify you. May I speak your truth with your love today in all my conversations. Through him who is Truth and Love I pray. Amen.
