Thoughts on Today's Verse...

The Stock Market can be fickle. Friends can disappoint us. Nothing is truly sure except one thing, or better yet, our very special ONE person - Jesus! If we build our lives on his work, love, grace, power, and plan, we can hang in, persevere, and even triumph because what we do for the Lord and with the help of the Lord matters eternally. It will not be work done in vain. Why? Because the Lord is raised from the dead and at work in our lives!

My Prayer...

Please, Father, bless me with courage and strength. Empower me, O God, to not budge from my hope and confidence in your Son to bring me to your glory, make the work I've done on earth endure, and bless those who come after me. In Jesus' name, I pray confidently. Amen.
