Today’s Scripture: 2 Peter 2:22 NLT: They prove the truth of this proverb: "A dog returns to its vomit." And another says, "A washed pig returns to the mud." Are we so different from these people referred to in 2 Peter 2? We know the freedom of Christ; we profess this freedom and yet return to our own mud holes from time to time. 2 Peter 2 has ...

Affirmation of God: The truth will live in me forever.
Today’s Scripture: 2 John 1:2 NLT: because the truth lives in us and will be with us forever. There is such comfort in “forever”, isn’t there?

Today’s Scripture: Mark 14:36 ESV: And he said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will."
