to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!"
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!"

How true it is that Jesus deserves our worship. Even when we were yet sinners He died for us that we may not go to Hell. Which I know is where I truly belong due to my sinful nature. All praise be to our King

Revelation 2:2
I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.
Jennifer W. from Honolulu, HI said:
The Lord knows about the trials we face. So we truly do never have to go through them alone. I'm living with a girl who seems to want nothing more than to be mean to me. She started pulling jokes when 2 of my pet hermit crabs died. Then she asked me today, "how is your other hermit crab doing? Dead?" It seems she wants nothing more to see me depressed. But through this verse I know I'm not going through this alone. Thank You Lord for being the divine comforter.

Jude 1:6
And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling—these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.

Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve;
Jennifer W. from Honolulu, HI said:
I remember when I was in a youth group at a local church one of the pastor's had a talk with me about my behavior. I remember he told me he was having the talk with me because I was one of the sheep entrusted under his care. How many other times we need to talk to others about things we'd rather not.I praise everyone who is able to bring up the gospel with non-believers and pray I may be able to do likewise myself more often.
