My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread Author, Unpublished online - John Blase  … AT THIS LINK      … wrote about a singer-songwriter, Jane Kristen Marczewski, who was known as “Nightbride” by her fans.  The singer wrote about her up-and- down life after being diagnosed with breast cancer and God’s provision of support from many as she dealt with the return of the cancer after months of remission.  

Many of us may have experienced God’s mercy and HIs provision of enabling grace as did the song-writer in the ODB story.  God certainly showed His people his mercy and provision as they wandered in the wilderness for 40 years prior to entering the Promised Land (see Highlight passage - and meditate on the Reference Scriptures shared above).  Right now, …  I’m going thru some ups-and-downs in my life, both physically and spiritually; … but I see God’s mercy sustaining me along the way.   I pray that you’re seeking - and finding - God’s grace as you deal with your life today.  Seek it, my friend, … it’s there … ALWAYS!  

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You, … Lord … for showing off Your mercy and grace again today; … praying for it to be there tomorrow; .. and I know it will be.      

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I praise You, Lord. … for uplifting us with Your mercy and grace again today.   … Amen
