Day 226
Scripture: Ps 1; Acts 15:12-22a; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11; Matthew 13:54-58
Scripture standout: Matthew 13: "But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.”
His Deed/The Day: This morning I shared a chippier bit of scripture with some family who are in the process of moving back to their home town. The verse I sent, along with words of encouragement, was about "planting yourself by the stream." But this verse up here is the one that makes me concerned. It IS hard to re-emerge back in your hometown. It is not forgiving and it remembers you way-back-when, and for the things that you accomplished when you were 13 years old — good and bad. I hope it's a smooth transition.
