Good morning everyone and Happy Independence Day for those of us that are in the USA. Oh give thanks unto the Lord for He is good yes he is good and worthy of our praise. The God we serve is marvelous beyond words. That’s why we just praise Him with every ounce of our being. I’m sharing this message with scripture from 2 different translations.
Today’s Prayer
Dear Lord JESUS, how do You love us? Let me count the ways — enough to bless us, to always be with us, to heal our wounds, to strengthen us, to give Your life for us! How do we love You? Enough to praise You in all things, to be obedient, to serve You? Enough to commit our lives to You? …Oh Lord, help us to love You enough to never count the cost. You didn’t. In Your holy name we pray, Amen.

Quote of the Day
If you want to do something good, do it; and if you cannot do it, then resolve to do it, and you will have achieved the resolution even if you do not fulfill the action itself. Thus a habit, whether good or bad, can gradually and spontaneously be overcome. If this were not the case, no criminals would ever be saved, whereas in fact not only have they been saved, but many have become conspicuous for their excellence. Think what a great gulf separates the criminal from the saint; yet resolution finally overcame habit. ~Peter of Damascus~
