VERSE:
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal
life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
-- Romans 6:23
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Romans+6:23
THOUGHT:
If we get paid what we deserve, we're not going to like our
wages. On the other hand, God, who is rich in mercy and grace,
gives us his gift because of the sacrifice of Jesus and not what we
deserve. I don't know about you, but that surely does make me want
to serve him more passionately and faithfully!
PRAYER:
Glorious and gracious Father, holy and perfect in every way,
thank you that your sacrificial grace bridges the great gulf
between your righteousness and my imperfection. Thank you for the
gift of eternal life. May my mortal life be holy and pleasing to
you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

VELVET ELVIS: REPAINTING THE CHRISTIAN FAITH, by Rob Bell
In this provocative, hopeful book, Bell asks what the church might look
like if today's believers fully embraced "the way" of love, peace,
sharing possessions, compassion, risk, forgiveness, and harmony.
