My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread  Author, Xochitl Dixon -  AT THIS LINK  - related a story about an elderly man living next door to a single mom; and one day going to her door and knocking.  When she came to the door, his said, “I haven’t seen you for about a week,” he said. “I was just checking to see if you’re all right.” The loving gesture and wellness check touched the single mom, who had lost her father some years earlier.  

And if my readers have taken in the linked song and the Scriptures above, I pray you all are convicted, … as am I, … to take every opportunity we are given to reach out and share God’s love with those around us who might need God’s caring love.  How might we do that today?   

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for giving me many who reach out and share Your love with me, Lord.       

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I’m praying that those who read with me here today, are looking for ways to share Your love with others today.  … Amen
