Now, for Something Completely Different!
2 Corinthians 3:16-18
How good is your attention? How easy is it for you to get distracted? Where do you put your time and energy? Are you irritable and annoyed most of the time because life isn't going "as planned"?
I'll let you in on a secret. Life seldom goes as planned.
When Christ said " I came that you might have life and have it abundantly," he meant you would get to expereince it all.
I love this passage because it recognizes that our faces are veiled, and through Christ we are able to see more clearly.
Take time this week to thank God for the blessings in your life; for the freedom you have in Christ, and for the transformation that is happening in and through you.

Walk the Line Part 2
1 Thessalonians 2
Read this portion daily this week. It is a bit more than than you have read in the past.
For Reflection continue the discipline of observing this portion using the following indicators.
P- is there a universal truth being taught here.
A- something that helps me to love Christ more, or an attribute that I would like to see develop in me.
I- an insight about myself.
D- something I would like to detach from myself
Prayer -
O Lord,
In this time of need, strengthen me. You are my strength and my shield; You are my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. I know, Father, that Your eyes go to and fro throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts long for You. The body grows weary, but my hope is in You to renew my strength.I do not fear, for You are with me. I am not dismayed or overwhelmed, for You are my God. I know You will strengthen me and help me; that You will uphold me with Your righteous hand. Even as the shadows of illness cover me, I feel the comfort of Your strength, Or Lord.
Amen.
