JESUS

Wonderful—He would be wonderful in what He would accomplish for the fallen human race.
Counselor—He would be our Guide through life, and our Advocate before the heavenly Father.
The Mighty God—He would be the God before whom every knee shall one day bow.
The Everlasting Father—He would be the God of eternity.
The Prince of Peace—He would be the One who would ultimately bring a true tranquillity among the nations.

Thomas Brooks

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

This life therefore is not righteousness but growth in righteousness; not health but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not what we shall be but we are growing toward it; the process is not yet finished but its is going on; this is not the end but it is the road. All does not yet gleam in glory but all is being purified.

Martin Luther

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Psalm 18:2
The English Standard Version

Fill it with sunshine,
Kind words, and Kind deeds.
