Thought for Wednesday January 11

Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will.

I have waited, waited for the LORD,

and he stooped toward me and heard my cry.

Blessed the man who makes the LORD his trust;

who turns not to idolatry

or to those who stray after falsehood.

Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will.

Mark 1: 29 – 39 Simon’s mother-in-law lay sick with a fever. They immediately told him about her. He approached, grasped her hand, and helped her up. Then the fever left her and she waited on them.

Do I ever think that maybe Jesus cured her just so she would fix him dinner? Do I ever do things for people hoping they will do things for me?

Action: Serve somebody today.
