For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was his plan from before the beginning of time-to show us his grace through Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 1:9

Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path. Psalm 119:105

1 Corinthians 4:17 (NIV) I am sending to you Timothy...who is faithful in the Lord.

Thought: Our reputation speaks louder than words. What does yours say?

Jeremiah 17:16 (NIV) I have not run away from being your shepherd...

Thought: You have a calling. Are you carrying it out?

Isaiah 51:1 (NIV) Look to the rock from which you were cut...

Thought: Start your day with Jesus.

Today’s Scripture: James 3:2-5 (NLT): Indeed, we all make many mistakes. For if we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could also control ourselves in every other way. We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong. In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire.

Today’s Thought: The tongue is so small but yet a very powerful body part. We must try to use it to build each other up instead of tear each other apart.

Today’s Prayer: Lord, I ask that only wholesome words come out of my mouth today. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen!
