Verse of the Day for Thursday, October 17, 2019
I tell you the truth, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to Christ will certainly not lose his reward.
—Mark 9:41
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
This simple and clear passage cuts two ways: First, we are blessed when we bless God's children, even if the blessing is simple. Second, we can rejoice when others do the simplest things to bless us in Jesus' name, because we receive the kindness and grace of others and because God blesses that kindness with his overwhelming grace. Bottom line — let's live to be a blessing! When we do, God is blessed. We are blessed. We bless others. In addition, when others are gracious to us, God has also promised to bless them. God pours his blessings out on all of us. In God's miraculous economy, the more we bless each other, the more blessings there are for everyone!
My Prayer...
Gracious and loving Father, please use me this week to be a blessing to everyone around me. But this week, dear Father, please lead me into the life of someone who desperately needs your grace. Please give me discernment to see them when you bring them across my path. Give me courage to reach out and bless them. Keep them on my heart and help me as I seek to be a long-term blessing to them. In Jesus' name I ask for your help and grace to use this opportunity for your glory. Amen.

Verse of the Day for Saturday, October 19, 2019
This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor. In your hearts do not think evil of each other."—Zechariah 7:9-10
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Do you want a clear, simple, straightforward word from the Lord today? That's what Zechariah gives us. He reminds us that God wants us to be fair, compassionate, caring, without prejudice, and tenderhearted to those in need, and to give each other the benefit of the doubt. In other words, he wants us to treat each other like Christ treated people. Why? Because we can't be right with God and be wrong with people!
My Prayer...
Loving Father, please forgive me for the times I've gotten bogged down with hard-to-understand verses in Scripture and ignored your clear teaching on how to live. Please give me the opportunity this week to live like you have commanded me. In the future, when my heart grows cold or my response to others is not what it should be, please use your Spirit to bring to my remembrance this passage so that I might live it to your glory. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Verse of the Day for Sunday, October 20, 2019
This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.
—1 John 2:5-6
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Do you want to know who walks with Jesus each day? Look for folks whose lives look like his! Do you want to walk with Jesus? Look at his life in the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John). See how he treated people; then do the same! Notice how he defeated Satan and overcame temptation. Trust that you can do the same! As you do these things, you will find that Jesus is not only walking with you, he is also working through you!
My Prayer...
Stir my spirit, O God, and empower me with your Spirit to live a life of integrity and purity like Jesus. Please give me a heart for people, dear Father, like your Son Jesus has. Help me to not only see their needs and hear their cries, but to also respond with love and compassion. In the name of my Savior Jesus, I pray. Amen.

Bdamage, having been raised in a region commonly referred to as an integral part of the 'Bible Belt' and in a strong Christian-based Family, it is my clear observation and conclusion that the very finest of those values are within & exhibited by you. Your Faith shines through with extreme clarity. 
There was honor in having met you last month and your BBQ pork was memorable.
I look forward to another meeting in the future.

Coming from you, that's extremely flattering and thoughtful, but I've come to realize I'm merely a messenger delivering His will as it's presented to me.
And we shouldn't let it be too long before our next meeting my friend.
Next Food Venture will be a smoked meatloaf and my loaded baked potato salad.
Cheers mate!

Have you taken the time to think about how valuable you must be that Our Heavenly Creator and His enemy are fighting for you?? 12. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to w noithstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
(KJV) Ephesians 6:12-13 - George Anthony Meza
