I Am The Light of the World

Just imagine people from all over Israel have come to Jerusalem to stay in tents and remember how God led them through the wilderness.  People are everywhere, lighting lights to remember what God has done. Yeah, that is where Jesus is standing.

I Am The Bread of Life

I AM The Bread of Life - God’s people grumbled for bread in the wilderness. Jesus performs a miracle and feeds 5000 with some bread and fish. They are following Jesus around wanting another sign or miracle showing that He is God.  To this crowd He said “I AM the Bread of Life.”

Saddle Up! - The Day

Saddle Up - When the devil has Jesus in the wilderness, he is encouraging Jesus to saddle up, to take charge and make something of himself. So often we want to saddle up and make something of ourselves. However, Jesus said “no” and instead rode through life as a servant.

Strength of Tin Foil - The Day

Strength of Tin Foil - Coke cans not only look but are strong. In their unopened state they are engineered to hold tons a weight in shipping. However an empty can looks the same but can be crushed with small pressure. Amos is showing us that if we want to look as powerful as the babylons of the world, we can be crushed like an empty can. However, the Lord’s Kingdom does not give off the appearance of strength but love.

Chasing After Egyptian Horses - The Day

Chasing after Egyptian Horses - It is a well known fact to the people of God that they ought not to go back to Egypt. Do not chase after the things of Egypt. Do not do the things of Egypt. However, we see the king of Israel marrying an Egyptian wife and chasing after Egyptian horses and having slave labor build the temple. God’s people are looking at the Day of the Lord square in the eye.

Egypt has become Babylon, but I remember the day when God passed over us and conquered our enemies. I remember the day when all my friends came over for my birthday. I remember all the days with family and friends were celebrated and had a great meal.

My Name is Stumbling Block- The Day

Egypt has become Babylon because they are refusing to acknowledge Yahweh as the one true God. Egypt has redefined good and evil so that murdering children and enslaving immigrants is seen as good. We see their cities of “brick and mortar’ are built on the blood of the innocent.

Make a Name - The Day

There's a problem; it is seen all through the first 11 chapters of Genesis. Sin is everywhere, and everyone is defining right and wrong for themselves. We see this at the tower of Babylon with people trying to make a name for themselves.

Matthew 18:20 - Mis"Quoted"

Today: Matthew 18:20 - For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.

Where two or more are gathered, There i am with them. This is a favorite phrase of God followers all over the globe. But when we see why Jesus is quoting this old Jewish proverb, it might just change the way you see your brother in Christ. https://www.gracelutheranpsl.com/news/misquoted3

Jeremiah 29:11 - Mis"Quoted"

Today: Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Prayer for the church from Martin Luther King Jr.

O God, our heavenly Father, we thank thee for this golden privilege to worship thee, the only true God of the universe. We come to thee today grateful that thou hast kept us through the long night of the past and ushered us into the challenge of the present and the bright hope of the future. We are mindful, O God, that man cannot save himself, for man is not the measure of things and humanity is not God.
Bound by our chains of sin and finiteness, we know we need a savior. We thank thee, O God, for the spiritual nature of man. We are in nature but we live above nature. Help us never to let anyone or any condition pull us so low as to cause us to hate. Give us the strength to love our enemies and do good to those who despitefully use us and persecute us
We thank thee for thy Church, founded upon the Word, that challenges us to do more than sing and pray, but go out and work as though the very answer to our prayers depended on us and not upon thee. Then, finally, help us to realize that man was created to shine like the stars and live on through all eternity
Keep us, we pray, in perfect peace, help us to walk together, pray together, sing together, and live together until that day when all of God's children - Black, White, Red, and Yellow -will rejoice in one common band of humanity in the kingdom of our Lord and of our God, we pray. Amen.
