Day of Praise

Mo, 07/01/13, "Day of Praise"

"Make yourself an ark of gopher wood." - Genesis 6:14

Last night, my kids and I watched "Evan Almighty" with Steve Carell and Morgan Freeman. We all laughed. I cried some too.

"God" (Morgan Freeman) says something like this, "The Flood is a love story. It's about people believing in each other and sticking together through hard times."

Evan Baxter's (Steve Carell) family finds that when they do that, when they believe in each other and stick together through tough times, then they actually change the world in large and small ways, in ways that matter and last, one person at a time.

God, through His Son Jesus, has changed our world by believing in us and sticking together with us through tough times. In the strength of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, let's pass it on to others.

Happy Monday!

Praise God!
