Gospel Reading:
Wise and Foolish Builders

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine
and puts them into practice
is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

The rain came down, the streams rose,
and the winds blew and beat against that house;
yet it did not fall,
because it had its foundation on the rock.

But everyone who hears these words of mine
and does not put them into practice
is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.

The rain came down, the streams rose,
and the winds blew and beat against that house,
and it fell with a great crash.”

(Matthew 7:24-27).

This is how we know what love is:
Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
And we ought to lay down our lives
for our brothers and sisters.
(1 John 3:16 NIV)

foolish, God, Jesus, Prayer, Psalms, thankful, thanks to God

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 50_7-15 -365

Reading: Psalm 50:7-15

LORD God,
I owe my life to you.
I have so much to be thankful for.
Every day is a gift from your hand.
Thank you, Lord Jesus.

Amen.

For since the creation of the world
His invisible attributes are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made,
even His eternal power and Godhead,
so that they are without excuse,
because, although they knew God,
they did not glorify Him as God,
nor were thankful,
but became futile in their thoughts,
and their foolish hearts were darkened
(Romans 1:20-21), NIV)*
