Thoughts on Today's Verse...

When are friends more than friends? When they gather in the name of Jesus and he meets with them there.

My Prayer...

Father, thank you for sending your Son, not just to minister on earth during his incarnation, but also to bless us with his presence during our worship. Open my heart to rejoice in his presence as I meet with friends who share my faith. In the name of the Lord Jesus I pray. Amen.
