Thought for Friay July 30

Lord, in your great love, answer me.

But I pray to you, O LORD,

for the time of your favor, O God!

In your great kindness answer me

with your constant help.

Lord, in your great love, answer me.

Matthew 13: 54 – 58 Jesus came to his native place and taught the people in their synagogue. Where did this man get all this?" And they took offense at him.


Were they offended at what he said or just offended because they didn’t think he should be preaching to them at all? What offends me?


Action: The next time something offends you, make a special effort to meet that offense with grace and love.
