“Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins?
And not one of them is forgotten before God.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
~Luke 12:6-7a, NKJV~
Pray for Chris Sasson today as he has surgery.
Continue to pray for the Titus family as they keep watch over Cliff.
Pray for people who are dealing with a virus that is going around.
Jadon Pailot was “walking” with his mother holding his hand. Thank God for continue progress for this young man fallowing his recent brain surgery. He’s still free of seizures. Thank God for that too!

Thought for the Day: Had lunch yet?
Dr. Harold Urey, Nobel prize winner in Chemistry, was walking along a sidewalk one day when he ran into another professor. They chatted for a few minutes, then, as they parted, Dr. Urey asked the other, “John, which way was I going when I met you?” “That way,” said the other, pointing. “Oh, good. That means I’ve already had my lunch,” muttered the professor as he walked away.
I have to confess to being somewhat absent-minded myself. That’s one of the advantages of growing older — every year, I have a more acceptable excuse for forgetting things. I forget where I’ve left my keys, I forget others’ names, and perhaps most irritating of all, I sometimes forget where I’ve left the remote control for the TV (how in the world did people ever cope with having to get up to change the channel? — but that’s another subject)!
All of those forgotten things bother me, but what bothers me even more is that I have a tendency to forget God. Not so much when times are rough (I need Him then!), but when times are good. God knew that might happen. That’s why He warned the Israelites before they entered the land of Canaan:
“Beware that you do not forget the LORD your God..lest — when you have eaten and are full, and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them; and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold are multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied; when your heart is lifted up, and you forget the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt.” (Deuteronomy 8:11-14a).
Would you forget your head if it wasn’t screwed on tight? Just don’t forget who your Head is!
Have a great day!
