Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the gospel with us wherever we go.
This week we will memorize the key verse for the book of Luke.
“For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”
Luke 19:10

Love this. I hope you all have a great week! Love, Ashley ❤️

Praying hard for an ex boyfriend who has been searching for God but can’t seem to get past his own personal hangups from childhood. Please pray with me that God would open his eyes & soften his heart to see who our Heavenly Father truly is.
My mother and father-in-law are godly people and will have been married 60 years in May. A week ago today she had emergency surgery where they found stage 3 colon cancer. It has been both a difficult and meaningful week. Their love for Christ and each other was witnessed by all who came into contact with them.
Our scripture for today, “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost…” I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that seeds were planted through her suffering this week. It causes me to stop and consider: when in my life may a difficulty be an opportunity for God to be glorified? How will that change my attitude, actions, and reactions?
Today all the siblings and spouses met in her hospital room, prayed, and sang the Lauren Daigle version of, It is Well. Lauren changed the chorus a little, it says:
It is well
It is well
Through the storm
I am held
It is well
It is well
With my soul
It is well
It is well
God has won
Christ prevailed
It is well
It is well
With my soul
Thank you Lord Jesus for your life given to redeem.
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost” (Lk 19:10). Thank you Father for seeking and saving this lost soul.
Ashley I am praying for your recovery.
Sarina I am praying for your family, I know what it is like to have teens question God after a death. After my oldest son died my youngest son and my niece and nephew — all of who went to church regularly — questioned why God would have let him die at such a young age (18 years old) and they have strayed from the church. My sister and I pray regularly for them to come back but it has to be their choice. I don’t know why God does what He does but I do know that my belief in God, Christ and the Holy Ghost will not cease because of this.
LizzieB85 thanks for the tip, I too struggle with getting up on Sundays.
My sisters in Christ please pray for me, I’m wanting to go on an inter-generational mission trip with my church but am wonder if I should due to health reasons. My main health reason that I am concerned about is my restless leg syndrome. But I also have back problems. Have wonderful and blessed Sunday.
I once was lost and now I’m found. I’ll never forget the day. I was found Cinco de Mayo 1984 when I heard the Amy Grant song: Look What has Happened to Me.
Sarah D, praying for you! I understand how that feels. A year ago, at 28, I finally did a round of intense medication that helped a lot, but the journey before and during it was so hard. Even now, my skin is much improved but not 100% and I still have hard days where I, too, feel ugly and embarrassed. Praying and meditating on God’s love and kindness, along with who he says I am, helps. I’m praying for you and me both to have that security and confidence as we trust in God and choose to believe that we are who he says we are. Hugs!
I have always had my faith and in our savior Jesus but this passage really calls to me especially these last couple of weeks. “For the Son Of man has come to seek and save the most.” Being a new mom and now a working mom I have struggled with spending time reading the word. I have felt such a strong pull to be more involved and to be studying the Bible daily. Here I am doing that also awaiting my new SRT bible in the mail. So thankful for to be able to connect here with other women. Many blessings to you all this coming week.
We are here to build the kingdom of God! Let’s get building ladies!
Prayers appreciated friends…I have not be speaking kindly towards myself lately…to be honest, I feel ugly. My skin is acting up and I wish it wasn’t. I can’t wait for the day when I don’t have to wear concealer over my imperfections. Please pray that I would remember who God says I am…and to still be confident in Him, even when I don’t feel confident. Even when I feel insecure in myself, pray that I would be confident in who He says I am and let that shine through me.
Dear Jesus, I pray for Sarah. You love her very much. Please remind her that she is your BEAUTIFUL creation. And in your eyes we have no imperfections. Amen.
Sarah, I’ve been in that same place. It’s crazy what the enemy can take to make us feel less than. In that season, I was disconnected from my physical appearance in many ways. It’s still a struggle, but I was challenged on where I sourced my self-worth and that began relieving the isolation I was experiencing. My skin was acting up in ways I’d never experienced and mentally, I was exhausted from covering my blemishes. My esteem took a dip from the thoughts I assumed society was having about my appearance. I just wanted to stay home and hide until it all passed. It was during that time that God began speaking to me differently — The scars left behind pale in comparison to the mark He has placed on His daughter. Through the Son, I need not cover myself or hide anything for I am redeemed and have direct access to God. In Him, I will find true rest and if I fill my cup with Him, the worlds thoughts will have no room.
Wanda, the short answer would be that Satan is trying to get you to not go. Or at least put you in a mood to not be receptive to the worship, fellowship, & message.
It’s a struggle, time-wise, for our family to get out the door & not be cranky on Sundays. I’ve started praying every Saturday night that God would protect our time & attitudes. You can pray He will protect your mind.
I really like your response Lizzie to pray the night before and pray for God to protect our time and attitudes. Many times for me it’s not that I don’t want to go. Its that I’m just so tired, I’m always on the go because I am single parenting, and yes I have streamed it live at times. But there is nothing like being there in person in the fellowship of other believers. That’s what gets me up and going.
Thank you Jesus for always loving us,always calling us back to forgive us. Thank you for never changing.
The struggle is real. Can anyone help me understand why, every Sunday, I struggle with going to church. Sometimes it feels like two separate people are in my head. Does any relate to this?
I can relate Wanda. Having grown up in church and attending church all of my childhood and a majority of my adult life
I can relate. Having grown up in the church and spent most of my adult life serving in some capacity. I found going to church became like going to a job. Sometimes all the pomp and circumstance left me draining. So instead of struggling I just choose to commit to once or twice a month of a Sunday. The other Sundays I livestream my church’s service, rest. spend time in my word, and enjoy the Sabbath. I still tithe and I still attend church social events: bible study, women’s conferences, etc. But I don’t force myself to go every Sunday and I have found that works for my household and I.
Seeking and saving. That is our Jesus’ super power.
Amen.
Raising an Hallelujah for the One who came to fight for me.. one who was lost..
But God..
He found me.
He found me.
He found me.
And He saved me.
He saved me.
Raising an Hallelujah for the One who came to find and save me..
All PRAISE to you O Lord..
Amen..
Happy Sunday. May Blessings overflow for you my sisters …
