23-Feb-12: 1 John 1:3-10
3 we declare to you what we have seen and heard so that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 We are writing these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true; 7 but if we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

The Missing This Day’s Thoughts From Last Week and Today
Technical Update…we continue to experience some trouble with our e-mail sending systems and apologize for these difficulties. Thanks for your patience as we try to address these issues. Here are Thursday’s and Friday’s messages for those who did not receive properly…
Thursday
God washes the eyes by tears until they can behold the invisible land where tears shall come no more.
Henry Ward Beecher
Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God; and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. And this is his commandment, that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us. Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us.
1 John 3:21-24 The English Standard Version
Friday
The holy heart can be hurt. But it answers injury with love and prayer and forgiveness.
W. E. McCumber
My son, never forget the things I’ve taught you. If you want a long and satisfying life, closely follow my instructions. Never forget to be truthful and kind. Hold these virtues tightly. Write them deep within your heart. If you want favor with both God and man, and a reputation for good judgment and common sense, then trust the Lord completely; don’t ever trust yourself. In everything you do, put God first, and he will direct you and crown your efforts with success.
Proverbs 3:1-6 The Living Bible
The future is as bright as the promises of God.
Adoniram Judson

The Lord of the universe stands ready to pick up your life and give it significance, a sense of fulfillment beyond anything you have ever experienced. Your heart has got eternity in it…and you will not be fulfilled until you know you are making an eternal difference with the one life you have.
Ron Hutchcraft
Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father‘s who sent me.”
John 14:23-24
The English Standard Version
God warns us that seeking our own brand of contentment apart from Him is futile, for “the bed is too short to stretch out on, the blanket too narrow to wrap around you.”
Marsha Crockett
