Today's Reading
2 Chronicles. What do you think of the answer which Rehoboam gave to the people? After the wisdom of his father, how do you think he had arrived at such an attitude?
Romans. I love the latter part of today's passage, the part about hope. Hope, from a New Testament perspective, contains no element of doubt. "I hope so" doesn't meant that something might or might not happen. In the NT, hope is looking forward to something that is a sure thing, but it just hasn't happened yet.
Today's Psalm reminds me of the verse that says, "The horse is prepared for the day of battle, but victory belongs to the Lord." (Prov. 21:31) We do what we can to prepared for the challenges we face. Ultimately, though, it is God who gives us what we need to endure.
Proverbs. Even if your parents are hard to get along with in their older years, honor and care for them. Your children are learning from your model.
What do you notice today? Any Questions?

This morning I feel so rich: I have God's power, His mercy, His inheritance, His indwelling Spirit, a hope, etc. It's overwhelming. I am loved.
