May 18

Today's Reading

1 Samuel: God had a plan for David and Saul couldn't thwart it. However, David had to be diligent to resist, run, and hide. At this point, Saul's insecurity drove him further and further into sin.

John: an old hymn says, "Savior, like a shepherd lead us; much we need thy tender care. In thy pleasant pastures, feed us; for our use thy folds prepare." When you stray, when you feel attacked, when you are afraid, when you are spiritually hungry...let Jesus provide for you!

Psalms echoes Jesus' words in John (above):
11 All you who fear the Lord, trust the Lord!
He is your helper and your shield.


Proverbs: perhaps the path of the upright is an open highway because the upright keeps it clean!

What do you notice today?

  1. I really enjoyed the Psalms 115. I think it is especially relevant to our current time where people are looking for answers...but the answers aren't always so obvious.
