Because of an ear infection, Little Johnny, had to go to
the pediatrician. The doctor directed his comments and questions to
Little Johnny in a
professional manner. When he asked Little Johnny, “Is there anything you
are allergic to?” Little Johnny nodded and whispered in his ear.
Smiling, the
pediatrician wrote out a prescription and handed it to Little Johnny’s
mother. She tucked it into her purse without looking at it.
As the pharmacist filled the order, he remarked on the unusual food-drug
interaction Little Johnny must have. Little Johnny’s mother looked
puzzled
until he showed her the label on the bottle. As per the doctor’s
instructions, it read, “Do not take with broccoli.”

Almighty God, I know you are supremely faithful! Today I ask you to restore hope to the hopeless. Plant seeds of hope in hearts that have lain fallow for so long. Send down showers of hope on those struggling with illness, persecution, or difficult relationships.
Hope that comes from you is hope with the power to sustain us when nothing around us seems the least bit hopeful.
Biblical marriage is a proving ground for reflecting God’s love. In part 4 of Biblical Marriage: One Man, One Woman, One Flesh, Pastor Dan Cox reads from 1 Corinthians 13.

As
long as you are stationary, no one will complain. Dogs don’t bark at
parked cars. But as soon as you accelerate—once you step out of
drunkenness into sobriety; dishonesty into integrity; or lethargy into
compassion—expect the yapping to begin. Expect to be criticized. Expect
to be mocked.
So
how can we prepare ourselves? Peter said this: “Don’t give the
opposition a second thought. Through thick and thin, keep your hearts at
attention, in adoration before Christ, your Master” (I Peter 3:14-15).
As we meditate on Christ’s life, we find strength for our own. Do you want to be bold tomorrow?
Then be with Jesus today. Be in his Word. Be with his people. Be in his
presence. And when persecution comes, and it will, be strong. Who
knows? People may realize you’ve been with Christ!
World Changers Update:
