Blessed little feets

Today, I am remembering all those who are sent to places as far as the east is from the west sharing the Good News of a loving Savior!! They go to people who need to hear and hearts that are ready to receive. But we must ask, how, then, can they (who have not heard) call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? By our support and prayer, of course!!

May the Lord give courage to those we support who go to places we can't. May the Lord embolden us who remain to share the same message of hope with our loved ones, friends and neighbors.  As it is written,

How beautiful on the mountains
    are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
    who bring good tidings,
    who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
    “Your God reigns!”

Romans 10:14-15; Isaiah 52:7

Promise Keeper

Who is a God like you,
    who pardons sin and forgives the transgression
    of the remnant of his inheritance?
You do not stay angry forever
    but delight to show mercy.
You will again have compassion on us;
    you will tread our sins underfoot
    and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea. 
 You will be faithful to Jacob,
    and show love to Abraham,
as you pledged on oath to our ancestors
    in days long ago.

Micah 7:18 -20

Start children off on the way they should go,
    and even when they are old they will not turn from it.
