My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from John Blase …  USE THIS LINK   described how restaurants, back in the 1960s, when so-called counter-culture youth, often labeled “Hippies,” were going shirtless. And restaurants would post signs which declared “No shirts, No shoes, No service” … (see attached photo) ... to require that patrons must obey these requirements if they wanted to be served.

And God has His requirements for His faithful servants as well, which are clearly spelled out in His word, as in those passages shared above and in the ODB entry for today.  And I, for one, am doing all I can to fulfill God’s call to obey Him and serve Him effectively.   How about you; … are you with me?  

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank you for calling me to be Your servant and to follow Your call to obedience. 

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, … for showing Your disciples how to serve You in obedience to Your commands.  …  Amen
