When this started, I was pulling verses from a desktop card holder that had topics with scripture on both sides of each card it held.  I went to the dailyWord archive this morning and saw that it goes back to February 1, 2007.  The first post notes that it all started back at the beginning of May in 2005.  Wow, it is hard to think that this has been going on this long.  The number of recipients has gone up and down over the years.  The distribution list currently has 93 recipients on it.  I have heard from some recipients that they have created their own distribution lists that they then forward to.  I get excited thinking about how many people this is reaching and the impact that is being made.  There is nothing necessarily special about me.  There is nothing necessarily special about this little email.  Most simply and honestly put, there is power in the Word of God.  (Isaiah 55:11/Isaías 55:11)

Shalom, Kyle

 

scripture

 

Hebrews 10:23-25

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

 

En Espanol, Hebreos 10:23-25

 

quote

 

Can I be a Christian without joining other Christians in the church?  Yes, it is something like: being a soldier without an army, a seaman without a ship, a business man without a business, a tuba player without an orchestra, a football player without a team or a bee without a hive.

Proverbs 18:24

One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

 

En Espanol, Proverbios 18:24

 

quote

 

The best neighbors I know anything about are my two hands.  They have lived on opposite sides of the street for many years, and they have never had a row.  If my left hand is hurt, my right hand immediately drops all other business and rushes across the way to comfort it, and help it out of its trouble.  If one happens to hurt the other, the (one that is ) hurt doesn’t get in a huff and say, “Here, I will not stand for that; you can’t treat me that way,” and get in a fight.  No, no, no.  They are good neighbors.  My two hands are members of one another.  And Christians should be like that.  They are members of Christ’s body.  They should be as loving, as forbearing, as sympathetic and helpful toward each other as are my two hands.

Samuel Brengle

scripture

 

Ecclesiastes 2:21-23

For a person may labor with wisdom, knowledge and skill, and then they must leave all they own to another who has not toiled for it. This too is meaningless and a great misfortune. What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun? All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their minds do not rest. This too is meaningless.

 

En Espanol, Eclesiastés 2:21-23

There is a burden of care in getting riches; fear in keeping them; temptation in using them; guilt in abusing them; sorrow in losing them; and a burden of account at last to be given concerning them.

Matthew Henry

 

thought

 

Some people say that money is the root of all evil.  However, the correct sentiment is that money is the root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10 English/Espanol).  Money is amoral; it is neither good nor evil.  That which money is used for and the intentions behind the use thereof is where the verdict lies.

scripture

 

Colossians 1:15-20

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

 

En Espanol, Colosenses 1:15-20
