1 John 3:18
Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.
What of Today’s Verse…
"Talk is cheap!" "You can tell me with your words, but I’ll show it with my life." "Put your life where your mouth is." We know the slogans; now let’s live love in truth. In a world where barter has replaced sacrificial and steadfast love, let’s go against the grain and do the truth!
Let us Pray:
Sacrificial Father, I confess to you that at times I am selfish. Other times my intentions are good, but my follow-through, and faithfulness are lacking. Use your Spirit to empower and enable me to be what I hope to become, to your glory. May your love be seen in my actions of genuine concern today. I pray this in Jesus name. Amen.

Memorable…
Ten years from now, what will you remember about today? The clothes that you’re wearing, or what you’re having for lunch, or the TV program you plan to watch tonight? Probably not. Is there anything about today that will be really memorable, or is it just one more in a long string of days which blur together after a week or two?
Consider that there are things you can do today which will make it a memorable one, things that, ten years from now, you’ll still be glad you did. There are people with whom, you can share your time, goals you can set and begin to act on, nagging problems that you can begin to solve, kindness that you can offer, new things to be learned, experiences which you can allow yourself to enjoy.
Will you remember today, ten years from now? Maybe, maybe not. Just imagine, though, how full your life could be if only you would attempt to make each day a memorable one.
