05/22/13 Missed completing my morning devotional this morning. Not good. This morning's scripture: 2 COR 4:10 Study in progress.
Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. Luke 22:36 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, Eph 6:16-17 ESV

The Diamond in the Rough
Bob Hoekstra daily devotional. May 21 : "The Process that Magnifies the Treasure"
2 Cor 4:7-9
2Co 4:7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
2Co 4:8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
2Co 4:9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

The Diamond in the Rough
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, 2 Cor 4:7
He keeps me, and sustains me, He is my bulwark against the storms, He is my armor against attacks, He is the Perfect Architect who builds the indestructible; an earthen vessel which cannot be crushed, as long as I abide in Him.
My steadfastness in Him is my testimony.
When I am asked how it is that I am sustained in the times of persecution, calamity or disaster, my strength my power, my existence, is enabled by the amazing grace of My Savior.
My Provider, My Healer, My Lord, My Jesus
PRAYER REQUEST:
Please keep in prayer all those who have had their existence devastated by the terrible storms and tornadoes in our country this week.
"Lord God, we ask you to please keep and sustain all those who have been impacted by this tragedy. Protect them Father, heal and comfort them, and walk with them Our Holy Father. In your precious name, thank you Lord Jesus, amen"
