Today’s Scripture 

“Jesus said to them, “Listen. No one is able to break into a mighty man’s house and steal his property unless he first overpowers the mighty man and ties him up. Then his entire house can be plundered and his possessions taken. I tell you this timeless truth: All sin will be forgiven, even all the blasphemies they speak. But there can never be forgiveness for the one who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, for he is guilty of an eternal sin!” (This is because they said he was empowered by a demon spirit.) Then Jesus’ mother and his brothers came and stood outside and sent a message to him, asking that he come out and speak with them. When the crowd sitting around Jesus heard this, they spoke up, and said to him, “Jesus, your mother and brothers are outside looking for you.” He answered them saying, “Who is my true mother and my true brothers?” Then looking in the eyes of those who were sitting in a circle around him, he said, “Here are my true family members. For whoever does the will of God is my brother, my sister, and my mother!”      Mark 3:27-35

Today’s Thought

Walking in obedience is a key to satisfaction in your life…You see, something we need to realize is that being out of the will of God brings dissatisfaction…Not only does it bring dissatisfaction, but eventually, if we fail to correct ourselves, we will have to reap the consequences of our disobedience.

Today’s Confession

Holy Spirit, thank you for your reminders that guide me daily, helping me to stay in obedience to your Word... When it begins to feel uncomfortable, I’ll understand that I missed something somewhere. That's when I will seek you until I get clarity and understanding are revealed.
