Today's Verse

1 John 2:15-16 – Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world — the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does — comes not from the Father but from the world. (NIV)5

Today's Daily Manna

Luke 18:27 – Jesus answered, "What is humanly impossible is possible for God." (GNT)
