My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from Nancy Gavilanes …  USE THIS LINK         writes of visiting a friend, named Jose, who was in hospice care in the final days of his life.  And in Joses’ lasts moments, the ODB author, called out to him, … “love you,” … to which Jose breathed his last, mouthing out the same words.   

And in this touching story we see really what we hear in the linked song and read in all of the Scriptures shared above, … i.e., that all Christians are called by our Lord to love others by sharing God’s good news of His saving grace.     I’m praying that all my readers today believe in the Gospel truth and are willing to share it with others.  Do you feel God’s calling as I do today?   

My Thanksgiving:… Oh, King Jesus, thank You … for calling me out to be Your witness of God’s good news.

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, … for calling all who believe in You as Lord to go and be Your witness in this world.   … Amen
