Deuteronomy 2, 3, 4

Moses continued his talk to the Israelites:

"God has been with us these 40 years,
watching over us and providing for us.

God gave us many victories
and continually told us not to be afraid of any enemies.

So now, Israel, do not forget God's goodness and help and laws.

Do not forget the things your eyes have seen.
Make sure to tell these things to your children's children.

God has brought you out of Egypt to be his special people.

If you seek God with all your heart and soul
you will find him.

Understand this today, therefore, and take it to heart:
The Lord is God indeed, in heaven above as on earth below,
he and no other.

Keep his laws and commandments as I give them to you today,
so that you and your children may prosper and live long
in the land that the Lord your God gives you forever
."

Lord, please help me to seek you with all my heart


Psalm 2

Why are the nations revolting against God?
Why won't the nations accept God?

O kings and rulers of the nations, listen to God's voice.
Serve the Lord with love and honor.

Blessed are the nations that love the Lord

Let all the nations love you, Lord. Let all the nations love you


I Corinthians 3

Apollos and I are servants who brought the faith to you. 
I did the planting, Apollos did the watering, but God made things grow

You are God's building. 
By God's grace, I  laid the foundation, the only foundation there can be: Jesus Christ

On that foundation you can build a house with good or poor materials.
At the end of your life, your building will be judged by God

Jesus, you are the foundation of my life. Help me build a house with good material (= good deeds)


Mark 8

In the village of Bethsaida, a blind man was brought to Jesus.
His friends begged Jesus to touch him.

Jesus took the man by the hand and led him outside the town.
Jesus put spittle on the man's eyes
and placed his hands on the man's eyes.

"Can you see anything?" asked Jesus.
The man was starting to see and replied "I can see people.
They look like trees, but they are walking about".

Jesus then placed his hands on the man's eyes again, and he saw clearly.
He was healed and could see everything clearly.

Jesus, heal my friend (..name..) who is blind
