<Yesterday    Tomorrow>

Today God says:
 "I want My love to fill your heart through the Holy Spirit".

He promises me:
  "And hope does not make us ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given to us". (Rom. 5:5)

My response to the word:
  Knowing God fills my life with hope, His love is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit. These two facts make all the difference in the world to me. Someone has said, "Love is the fairest flower that blooms in God's garden". Throughout this day, therefore, I will walk in the aroma of God's love, and as I breathe in His spiritual power I know I will be filled with hope.

My prayer:
  Thank you, Father, for filling me with your Holy Spirit who spreads your love throughout my innermost being. I will walk in your love throughout this day.

Today's scriptures:
 "But God is rich in mercy because of His great love for us". (Eph. 2:4 GW) "God our Father loved us and by His kindness gave us everlasting encouragement and good hope. Together with our Lord Jesus Christ, may He encourage and strengthen you to do and say everything that is good". (2 Thess. 2:16,17 GW) "This is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the payment for our sins". (1 John 4:10 GW)  

Quote for today:
