October 13Worth the Wait
We eagerly await a Savior. Philippians 3:20
Outside the Shibuya train station in Tokyo is a statue commemorating an Akita dog named Hachiko. Hachiko is remembered for unusual faithfulness to his owner, a university professor who commuted from the station daily. The dog accompanied him on his walk there in the morning and came back to meet him every afternoon just as his train arrived.
One day the professor didnt return to the station; sadly, hed died at work. But for the rest of his lifemore than nine yearsHachiko showed up at the same time as the afternoon train. Day after day, regardless of weather, the dog waited faithfully for his masters return.
Paul commended the Thessalonians for their faithfulness, citing their work produced by faith, labor prompted by love, and endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Thessalonians 1:3). Despite harsh opposition, they left their old ways to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from heaven (vv. 910).
These early believers vital hope in their Savior and His love for them inspired them to see beyond their difficulties and to share their faith enthusiastically. They were assured there was nothing better than living for Jesus. How good it is to know that the same Holy Spirit who emboldened them (v. 5) still empowers us today to faithfully serve Jesus as we await His return.

Reflect & Pray
What do you look forward to most about being with Jesus? How are you sharing your hope in Him?
Jesus, help me take heart and wait for You.

October 14Strengthened in Song
I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress. Psalm 59:16
When French villagers helped Jewish refugees hide from the Nazis during World War II, some sang songs in the dense forest surrounding their townletting the refugees know it was safe to come out from hiding. These brave townspeople of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon had answered the call of local pastor André Trocmé and his wife, Magda, to offer wartime refuge to Jews on their windswept plateau known as La Montagne Protestante. Their musical signal became just one feature of the villagers bravery that helped save up to 3,000 Jews from almost certain death.
In another dangerous time, David sang when his enemy Saul sent nighttime assassins to his house. His use of music wasnt a signal; rather, it was his song of gratitude to God his refuge. David rejoiced, I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble (Psalm 59:16).
Such singing isnt whistling in the dark during danger. Instead, Davids singing conveyed his trust in almighty God. You, God, are my fortress, my God on whom I can rely (v. 17).
Davids praise, and the villagers singing in Le Chambon, offer an invitation to bless God today with our singing, making melody to Him despite the worries of life. His loving presence will respond, strengthening our hearts.
By: Patricia Raybon
Reflect & Pray
How do you feel when youre singing your favorite praise song? Why do praise songs inspire us to feel stronger?
Dear God, strengthen my heart with praises that transform my fears and worries into worship of You.

Happy Monday, all...
Hours
I have known hours built like cities,
House on grey house, with streets between
That lead to straggling roads and trail off,
Forgotten in a field of green;
Hours made like mountains lifting
White crests out of the fog and rain,
And woven of forbidden music
Hours eternal in their pain.
Life is a tapestry of hours
Forever mellowing in tone,
Where all things blend, even the longing
For hours I have never known.
