HAVE FAITH AND BE HAPPY

Scripture:

 "Just as the Father knows me and I know
the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep." -
John 10:15

Reflection:

Have faith and be happy! Jesus, our Savior,
laid down His life to wash away all of our sins.
No matter what is going on in your life, remember
that you have a Savior who loved you so much
that He died for you. Just so you could have
eternal life - hallelujah!

Prayer:

Thank you for being the Lord.  Thank you for
loving us so much that you died for us.  Now
because of your sacrifice and grace I will be
with You forever.
AMEN

SHALOM, SHALOM!

Scripture:

“I have seen their ways, but I will heal them;
I will guide them and restore comfort to Israel’s
mourners,creating praise on their lips.
Peace, peace, to those far and near,”
says the Lord. “And I will heal them.” — Isaiah 57:18–19

When we read the prophet’s words on
Yom Kippur, they deliver an encouraging
and relevant message to those in attendance.
No matter how distant a person may feel,
or how far they may have strayed from the
path of righteousness, God is still overjoyed
to see him. Everyone can stand comfortably
before the Lord knowing that their presence is
most welcome.

God never writes anyone off and it’s never too
late to return to the Lord. On the contrary. Our
heavenly Father anticipates our arrival with joy
in His heart and a warm greeting on His lips.
“Shalom, shalom!”

With prayers for shalom, peace,
Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein

WHEN YOUR IN NEED

Scripture

When God's people are in need, be ready
to help them. Always be eager to practice
hospitality.
Romans 12:13, NLT

Reflection:

Christian hospitality differs from social
entertaining. Entertaining focuses on the
host--the home must be spotless; the food
must be well prepared and abundant; the
host must appear relaxed and good-natured.
Hospitality, by contrast, focuses on the
guests. Their needs--whether for a place to
stay, nourishing food, a listening ear, or
acceptance--are the primary concern.
Hospitality can happen in a messy home.
It can happen around a dinner table where
the main dish is canned soup. It can even
happen while the host and the guest are
doing chores together.

Don't hesitate to offer hospitality just
because you are too tired, too busy, or
not wealthy enough to entertain.
