Scripture: Ps 8; Genesis 1:1—2:4; 2 Corinthians 13:11-13; Matthew 28:16-20
Scripture standout: Matthew 28:"And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Morning thoughts: Happy Father's Day!
His Deed/The Day: I have so much to do for work I don't even know where to start. And did I tell you we're leaving for a few days on Tuesday? Meanwhile, all I could do when I had a few moments at the computer was to write little acronyms for all the dads in my world. Maybe they're called something else, and by golly I can't remember what it's called when you write a quality beside each letter of a name or word. Whatever. So instead of working I worked on this silly form of poetry. Gave the dads some mad props.
What happens when you deliberately tweak your conscience to be more aware of meeting others' needs? Every day? And if it happens to be Lent...for 40 days? What does that look like? What deeds would transpire? What blessings come back? How do we listen for direction? Wake up each morning and decide to be intentional about bringing others better into focus with a little prayer, silence and scripture. Let the daily deeding commence! #DoingUntoOthers #OthersFirst #OneDeedADayGo
How to Do-Good
Quick How-To Guide: Start the day with a little silence, scripture (via Forward Day by Day, if you choose) and prayer. Then open your eyes and make it a practice to be hyper-aware of who and what's going on around you. Deploy that deed with confidence when God gives you his signature gentle nudge. This may feel awkward and unnatural. #NoWorries #GoWithIt #DeedWellDone #BlessingsEnsueJustWait
