Suggested Bible Reading

Therefore this is what the LORD says: "If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them. I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified wall of bronze; they will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to rescue and save you," declares the LORD. "I will save you from the hands of the wicked and redeem you from the grasp of the cruel." ~ Jeremiah 15:19-21

Today's Scripture

"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." ~ John 16:33

Matthew was a wonderful man. He never met a person he didn’t like. He would go out of his way for you. But, he was of this world; swept away by material pleasures such as drugs and alcohol. Some might say they couldn’t blame him for being lost in this world; a world of temptation and sadness.

Through Matt’s death, I have learned how to live. I must live in this world, but not be of this world. I shall be restored to grace if I but ask humbly. For grace is defined as a state of being that can be permanent, in that it consists only in a passing influence of God on the soul. I shall overcome this world through prayer and grace. Praise His name.

Prayer

Dear Lord, help me to surrender my life and my will unto You. For this I pray, in Jesus name. Amen.

Thought for the Day

Living in God’s world, not ours.

Prayer Focus

Surrender

This could be the bones of a great story.

We need to hear more about Mathew, what kind of a person he was and what hahppened to him. But don't tell us these things - show us by describing what he did or said.

While doing this, describe your own feelings about the situation, and how you are reacting to what he is doing or saying. Lead us to understand what this event meant to you in some detail. It's probably a good idea to write about yourself in the third person, as someone interacting with Mathew. How did you come to the particular conclusions you arrived at?

The opinions expressed by authors do not necessarily reflect the opinion of FaithWriters.com. This is especially true with articles that deal with personal healthcare and prophecy. We encourage the reader to make their own decision in consultation with God, His Word, and others as needed.
