Thoughts on Today's Verse...

The words of Jessie Brown Pound's old hymn, "Will You Not Tell It Today?" say it best: "If the light of his presence has brightened your way, O will you not tell it today?" Prayerfully select someone who needs to know of the goodness and graciousness of God, then please, lovingly, share Jesus with that person. A heart filled with praise to God will not only praise him but will lead others to do so as well. I can't think of a better example of this than Andrew, who heard about Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was tell his brother Simon Peter and bring him to Jesus (John 1:40-42)... and the world was changed!

My Prayer...

O Lord, I praise you from the bottom of my heart. In addition, dear Father, please bless me today as I seek to bring others to know and honor you more fully by following Jesus. In Jesus' name, I pray, asking for your power and grace to be with me as I seek to lead others to Jesus. Amen.
