When Moses had finished saying all these words to all Israel, he said, "Take to heart all these words to which I give witness today... Yes. This is no small matter for you; it’s your life."
JOHN 6:63 (MSG)
The Spirit can make life. Sheer muscle and willpower don’t make anything happen. Every word I’ve spoken to you is a Spirit-word, and so it is life-making.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Take God's life-giving word to heart.
DAILY FODDER
What habits are you developing in your life that keep you connected to God's word?
PRAYER
Lifegiving Spirit, come dwell in the depths of my heart. Thank you for revealing the divine love of God through Jesus.

we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth

and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
