“A cheerful heart brings a smile to your face; a sad heart makes it hard to get through the day” (Proverbs 15:13, MSG).

 

“Do you know that all over the provinces of both Macedonia and Achaia believers look up to you? The word has gotten around. Your lives are echoing the Master’s Word, not only in the provinces but all over the place. The news of your faith in God is out.

Scripture:

“So, this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover’s life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God” (Philippians 1:9-11, MSG).

Scripture Reading:

“Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then
sink yourself into that. Don’t be impressed with yourself. Don’t compare yourself with
others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your
own life” (Galatians 6:4-6, MSG).
