The Daily Dose of God August 12

Memory Verse; Adonai is my portion and my cup.

You cast my lot.  My boundary lines fall in pleasant places

—surely my heritage is beautiful. Psalms 16:6 TLV


Acts 11-12:24 Psalms 31


Because if we believed God’s creation had value simply by being created, we wouldn’t do this to each other or to ourselves. And people said she let her country down, let her teammates down, let them down. They said it believing that they themselves were only the money in their bank accounts and the number of followers on their social media accounts that they tracked in their sleep and worshiped when they woke up in the morning.(fbclid=IwAR1BGX7Hls5kiYS46IAS1bc7rqbcRa7Q82ouUekkuYILLh3IWkLg45IxCeg)


Gracious Father,  We cannot force forgiveness or repentance in others. This is the work of Your Spirit within the willing soul, and He is able to cleanse and heal. You call us to this wholeness and humility and to follow the One who died for us. Where needed, impart understanding and conviction which produces sincere change. Give us Christ's love which is not easily offended, but that is also not rude, easily angered or unkind. May we turn from all bitterness and harsh words, which fuel animosity. Christ is not divided. Guide us into love so we do not sin against each other. Restore the wounded. Comfort those who have been wrongfully treated. Whether we have offended been offended, may we listen to Your word and let the Spirit do His work. And if we see any struggling, may we humbly intercede for them in tender, fervent prayer. In the Name of Christ, amen. (AdahHutchcraft)
