Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good.
His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of gods.
His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords:
His love endures forever.
To him who alone does great wonders,
His love endures forever.
~Psalm 136:1-4 (NIV)~
At the end of a Passover meal, they sang a hymn.
They sang the same hymn at the end of every Passover meal
and they’ve done it for thousands of years.
It is Psalm 136.

MISSIONARY PERSONAL NEEDS. Praise God for bringing healing to the East Asian Peoples worker who has been gravely ill in recent weeks. His medical condition has been upgraded to stable. He will return to the U.S. this weekend for further recovery. Pray for God’s hand to be upon him and his wife as they travel homeward. As we celebrate Resurrection Day this weekend, we can also thank the Father for answering prayers for the restoration of health to this faithful servant of our Lord. Thank you for your faithful prayers.

MISSIONARY PERSONAL NEEDS. Praise God that the East Asian worker for whom we have prayed in recent days is now conscious and breathing on his own; however, he is still very weak. Even as you had prayer for him in recent days, please continue to uphold him with your prayers. Please remember his wife as well, asking God to give all that she needs during this difficult ordeal.

One day, Ali was seated in an airplane when the flight attendant came up the aisle to make sure that all the passengers had their seatbealts fastened. Reaching Ali’s seat, she asked him to buckle up.
“Hmph!” the champ sneered. “Superman don’t need no seatbelt!”
The flight attendant smiled sweetly and replied, “Superman don’t need no airplane, either.”
Ali fastened his seatbelt.
The greater our success, the greater the risk of us thinking too highly of ourselves. Os Hillman, “The Success Test,” The Upside of Adversity, 109
“For I say, through the grace given to me,
to everyone who is among you, not to think of himselfmore highly than he ought to think,
but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.”
Romans 12.3
Jesus is the reason for the season!
