Scripture: Ps 78:1-39; Genesis 26:1-6, 12-33; Hebrews 13:17-25; John 7:53—8:11
Scripture standout: Hebrews 13: " 20 Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, 21 equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen."
John 7: "7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”
His Deed/The Day: I attempted to deed a little girl I did not know, but it this deed is still "in progress." Since I am a news junkie, I read on a local TV station website that a little girl in Orange Park was fighting back against bullying by making and selling bracelets. She had been the victim of a bully at her school in OakLeaf Plantation. Some mean kid or kids called her Toucan Sam because she has a more pronounced nose. She stood up to them and now is making these bracelets as a way to remind the wearer that beauty is only found on the inside. What a tough girl! So I tried to buy one of her bracelets. Trouble is, her business model is, well, let's just say it's not super easy to just support her thing and move on. There has been quite a bit of messaging back and forth. At some point, I hope to have her address so i can purchase a $5 bracelet. We shall see. But I think it is important in deeding to at least take the step toward actually doing the thing you think might be a good idea. With this, it would have been very easy to just read the story without clicking the hot links to her Facebook page.
