In His Image


Billy Graham's Daily Devotion

Create in me a new, clean heart, O God, filled with clean thoughts and right desires.
–Psalm 51:10 (TLB)

You were created in the image and likeness of God. You were made for God’s fellowship, and your heart can never be satisfied without His communion. Just as iron is attracted to a magnet, the soul in its state of hunger is drawn to God. Though you, like thousands of others, may feel in the state of sin that the world is more alluring and more to your liking, some day—perhaps even now as you read these words—you will acknowledge that there is something deep down inside you which cannot be satisfied by the alloy of earth. Then with David, the Psalmist who had sampled the delicacies of sin and had found them unsatisfying, you will say, “Oh God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is.”

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
How I long for You, God, yet so often my heart is drawn away from Your leading. Like David, I desire a clean heart.

Como hay alegrías, hay tristezas

Como hay alegrías por oraciones contestadas como que los papas de Santi no se tienen que ir de la casa Gloria a Dios!! Lamento de todo corazón informarles que el abuelito de Sara, falleció hoy y ella nos pide que la acompañemos en oración y pide por su familia en Colombia. Para la Gloria de Dios hay fiesta en los cielos porque su Abuelito amaba a Dios y siempre le reconoció como Salvador. Orar sin cesar!! Dando Gloria a Dios!

In His Eyes

July 23, 2012 Mary Southerland Today's Truth I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be ( Psalm 139:14-15 , NIV). Friend to Friend It was my first day of teaching second grade. While standing at the classroom door, greeting parents and children, I felt a tug on my skirt. I looked down into the beautiful blue eyes of Sammy, one of my new students.  His mother, who was standing beside Sammy, looked at me and said, "I guess you've heard about Sammy.  Good luck!" As she walked away, Sammy said, "She's right. I'm dumb and mean and can't read or write."  Lisa was a tall, blonde and beautiful young woman with zero self-confidence. Lisa was...
