My Aunt Kay Jean suggested I start sharing a verse of the day.  I liked her suggestion but decided instead of a verse of the day, I would share a verse of the week.  Be reminded of who God is from His Word. 2  Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, 2  saying, “I called out to the Lord , out of my distress,      and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried,      and you heard my voice. 3  For you cast me into the deep,      into the heart of the seas,      and the flood surrounded me; all your waves and your billows      passed over me. 4  Then I said, ‘I am driven away      from your sight; yet I shall again look      upon your holy temple.’ 5  The waters closed in over me to take my life;      the deep surrounded me; weeds were wrapped about my head 6...

I am not the gospel; Jesus Christ alone is the gospel. —Michael Horton via @birdchadlouis Love doesn’t come from us. We only love because God loved us first. We need to lift our eyes. @simplestapleton When we don’t have an assurance of God’s love, we don’t want to be in his presence because of our sin. Faith can’t flourish when you see God this way… Faith looks at least 10 times more at Christ then at your sin. (Jack Miller) God gives...
