Today’s verse

But Lord, be merciful to us, for we have waited for you. Be our strong arm each day and our salvation in times of trouble.
Isaiah 33:2 NLT

Today’s reading
Philippians 4
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians+4&version=NLT

Philippians 4:6-8 NLT
[6] Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. [7] Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. [8] And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.

The Habit of Enjoying Adversity

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/the-habit-of-enjoying-adversity/

…that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.
2 Corinthians 4:10

…it is adversity that makes us exhibit His life in our mortal flesh. Is my life exhibiting the essence of the sweetness of the Son of God, or just the basic irritation of “myself” that I would have apart from Him?

Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. I just need U. My source of source. My comfort in times of trouble. My strength when I am weak. My teacher, counselor and guide. Let nothing disconnect or separate me from Your presence. Help me to practice Your presence each and every moment of this day. O that You would continue to bless me and mine, keeping Your hand upon us, from evil and causing any pain. Amen

Today’s verse

…that you may know what is the hope of His calling… Ephesians 1:18

Today’s reading
2 Corinthians 4
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Corinthians+4&version=NLT

2 Corinthians 4:1-4 NLT
[1] Therefore, since God in his mercy has given us this new way, we never give up. [2] We reject all shameful deeds and underhanded methods. We don’t try to trick anyone or distort the word of God. We tell the truth before God, and all who are honest know this. [3] If the Good News we preach is hidden behind a veil, it is hidden only from people who are perishing. [4] Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.

Remember that you have been saved so that the life of Jesus may be manifested in your body (see 2 Corinthians 4:10). Direct the total energy of your powers so that you may achieve everything your election as a child of God provides; rise every time to whatever occasion may come your way.

The Habit of Keeping a Clear Conscience

My Utmost for His Highest
https://utmost.org/the-habit-of-keeping-a-clear-conscience/

Conscience is that ability within me that attaches itself to the highest standard I know, and then continually reminds me of what that standard demands that I do. It is the eye of the soul which looks out either toward God or toward what we regard as the highest standard.

OneWalk: Under the Sun, with the Son

A letter to Mom (Abuelita), Today’s Bible Verse, and Worship Song

Dear Mom

It’s your first Mother’s Day in heaven, and I miss you. As I am sure my brother and sisters will too. While everyone says I was your favorite, I know I was the one, that saw and talked you the least, and probably hurt you the most.

Thanks to Jesus and all your prayers I know just how unconditional your love was, and how quickly and easily you forgave me. So that doesn’t bother me as much as being thought of as your favorite did. Not that I didn’t want as much of your love as I could get. God and you know I needed it, but because of how I felt, it made my brother and sisters feel, in a way less loved. That always hurt me the most. It was the same with Dad.

You see, as much as you loved me unconditionally and I you. I love them unconditionally. Knowing I have hurt and let them down by not being there for them either. So I hope and pray that like with our relationship. The closer I keep getting to my Lord Jesus Christ, the closer we will get, as I feel we got. It’s like we were closer as brother and sister in Jesus Christ, than as mother and son. When I think about it, like I will today often. I know that’s because as mother and son, under the sun. We were limited by our human experiences, and what those experiences had turned us into without Jesus. But as brother and sister in Jesus, we were freed from our human experiences. Seeing each other through His eyes, and with His heart, as He created us to be.

Maybe that’s why if those closest relationships under the sun; mother and child, husband and wife, brother and sister are not in Jesus. There will always be limited by the human experiences of hurt and pain we cause each other. Only in Jesus are we be freed and healed, and can we see each other as He created us to be.

You know, I started my daily prayers blog post again. This time I spend alone with Jesus, helps me feel closer to Him and mine. I feel for those moments with Him, I see the world with His eyes and feel with His heart. As He created it to be.

All my love! Say Hi to Dub, Nana, Abuelita, Abuelito, Titi Evelyn, Fernando, and the rest of the family.

Your Son and Brother in Jesus Christ,
Richard

Is there someplace where you are not at home with God? Then allow God to work through whatever that particular circumstance may be until you increase in Him, adding His qualities. Your life will then become the simple life of a child.

Revolutionary Communicator: Seeking Connection
Life for Leaders Daily Devotion
https://mailchi.mp/depree.org/revolutionary-communicator-seeking-connection?e=1bc587c115

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. John 1:14a

Throughout the gospels, Jesus connects with people. He touches lepers, dines with outcasts, prays for the unclean, enters Samaritan villages, and cries with the grieving. Jesus, the prophesied Immanuel, made it a leadership habit to come near, enter in, and be present. We continue the ministry of Jesus when we cry with others, listen to their stories, and are simply present. We can carry the presence of Jesus wherever we go.

There are so many hurt, lost and searching. Amen

Today’s Bible Verse, Reading, Devotion, Worship Song and Prayer

Today’s verse

Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, "If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?

Are You Established In God?

https://mailchi.mp/depree.org/are-you-established-in-god?e=1bc587c115

My heart, O God, is steadfast; I will sing and make music with all my soul. Psalm 108:1

We live in a day when the ground beneath us is shifting… literally, in many parts of the world. But even if we aren’t experiencing literal earthquakes, we can experience the instability of the foundations of our lives. Investments plummet; loved ones die; jobs are lost; culture is continually changing; leaders fail at an alarming rate. How much we need to be established in God, the only certain ground of our being.

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. As I read the beginning of Psalm 108, I find myself yearning to be established in you. May I build my life upon you as my sure foundation. May I lean upon you in times of uncertainty. May I rely upon you when I am rejoicing and when I am filled with sorrow. Help me to be firmly established in you, so that the “earthquakes” of this life do not shake me to the core. As I rest upon you, may I praise you with all that I am, with heart, soul, mind, and strength. By your grace, may I live each day for the praise of your glory. In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

Today’s prayer from today’s devotion.

Today’s Bible Verse, Reading, Devotion, Worship Song and Prayer

Today’s verse

Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.
Ephesians 6:18 (NLT)

Today’s reading
Ephesians 6
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+6&version=NLT

Ephesians 6:10-12 NLT
[10] A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. [11] Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. [12] For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

Today’s devotion
Jesus Calling

DO NOT RESIST OR RUN from the difficulties in your life. These problems are not random mistakes; they are hand-tailored blessings designed for your benefit and growth. Embrace all the circumstances that I allow in your life, trusting Me to bring good out of them. View problems as opportunities to rely more fully on Me.

When you start to feel stressed, let those feelings alert you to your need for Me. Thus, your needs become doorways to deep dependence on Me and increasing intimacy between us. Although self-sufficiency is acclaimed in the world, reliance on Me produces abundant living in My kingdom. Thank Me for the difficulties in your life since they provide protection from the idolatry of self-reliance.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
—John 15:5

We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.
—2 Corinthians 1:8–9

Always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
—Ephesians 5:20

Today’s prayer
Dear God, Abba Father, Jesus my Lord and Savior. Today I pray the lyrics from today’s worship song for I know and feel more than ever…
If I sing but don’t have love
I waste my breath with every song
I bring an empty voice, a hollow noise
If I speak with a silver tongue
Convince a crowd but don’t have love
I leave a bitter taste with every word I say
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of your love
Let my love look like You and what You’re made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
If I give
To a needy soul but don’t have love then who is poor?
It seems all the poverty is found in me
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You’re made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
Oh, let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
When it’s all said and done
When we sing our final song
Only love remains
Only love remains
Let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You’re made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love

Amen
