Today's Verse: Romans 12:15

Sunday, May 28, 2006

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
— Romans 12:15

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

We are not alone. God has given us each other to live our lives for him and get us back home to him. Along the way, we want to share each others burdens, soar on each others joys, and love each others hurts. There is no such thing as a solo Christian.

My Prayer...

Loving Father, lead me to the people today who need their burdens lifted and their joys shared. Let me be your presence in the world of your children today. This I ask in Jesus name. Amen.
