Winter paid us another visit! I usually welcome company, but I wasn’t planning this return so quickly.
A Scripture to Focus on Today
“Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God.”
1 John 4:7
There are many ways to show love for others.
Two questions to ponder:
- How do you show love?
- How do you choose those you show love to?

A Scripture about Prayer
This is a good one to memorize or to write in your Bible
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6-7
Pray for High School and College seniors.
They will soon be closing one phase of their lives and moving on to new ventures and adventures.
Pray they will continue to focus on what their task is daily and not get “senioritus”!
Others
Today is a good day to check on someone who haven’t seen lately. I have plans to do so.
