Have been brooding on this line late last night and early this morning: “Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God” (2Cor 5:20). Are you serious—WE are Jesus’ ambassadors?
Worry and anxiety are all too common in our stressful, unpredictable lives. For some, anxiety is an infrequent occurrence; for others, it’s a constant companion. But God wants something better for us. You can claim the encouraging promises from your loving Father in heaven
NAD VIEWPOINTS: "Let's not take our advantage of diversity for granted. We should be intentional about bridging across like we've never been before. ... Our diversity is our testimony to the world."
— Tracy Wood, director of NAD Youth and Young Adult Ministries
THE LORD IS OUR DEFENDER
We can't defend ourselves against all forces marshaled against us. We need supernatural protection. Praise the LORD, He is our Defender and strong Deliverer.
Let's rest in Him and praise Him today.

The Sabbath is not introduced as a new institution but as having been founded at creation. It is to be remembered & observed as the memorial of the Creator’s work. Pointing to God as the Maker of the heavens & the earth, it distinguishes the true God from all false gods. {PP 307}
There was a blood-curdling scream!
“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors!”
- Matthew 24:32-33 NKJV
There are people you are presently judging harshly for believing “ridiculous” things you yourself once believed. Be kind to your former ridiculousness when you see it in others. To be proud of your maturity and enlightenment is to be immature and unenlightened.
