And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.

PRAYER FOCUS TODAY
Today, I am reminded of all the older men and women who live alone. Be a good neighbor and/or friend and check on them at a regular time each day. You will develop a great friendship and love for them. They will have the security of knowing you will check on them. Their family will appreciate you more than you can ever imagine. Please pray for them daily. You may want to make a list and keep it close at hand until you can remember all the names without a list.

GOOD FRIDAY
When I was a young child, I had trouble understanding why we would celebrate Jesus’ death. It wasn’t long before Momma got that cleared up. Be sure the children or anyone else who does not understand the wonderful significance of this day understands it this year.
