Luv, it is probably the best picture taken at my place. And, gurl fren - you can come back here, anytime. You won’t have to ‘force’ down my pancakes - heck - I’ll make you poached eggs, or oatmeal, or french toast, (or whatever!) Coffee is always fresh (or tea) and after four in the afternoon, it becomes even better. (My dog calls it “Yappy-Hour” as she gets a treat when she hears the ice clink.) LOL! She doesn’t know it is lemonade - ROTF!!

I like the “Ice Cream Prayer.”

I have always thought that honest prayers got more attention.

The King’s Colors
By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. —John 13:35

In Thailand, the people greatly love and admire King Bhumibol (Rama IX), who has led them for over 60 years. To display their respect for the king, the Thai people wear bright yellow shirts every Monday, because yellow is the official color of the king.

As we seek to live for our King, the Lord Jesus Christ, we should also show our colors of allegiance and appreciation for all He has done for us. But how? What are the “colors” that declare to the world that we serve the King of kings and Lord of lords?

The night before His crucifixion, King Jesus told us what our “colors” should be when He said, “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). His disciple John echoed this when he wrote, “Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another” (1 John 4:11).

When we display Christ’s love for our fellow believers, it is more than just kindness or care. It is one of the most tangible ways we can show our love and devotion for the Savior.

As we interact with fellow Christ-followers, let’s be sure to show our colors. That will honor our King before a watching world.

Teach me to love as Thou dost love,
And let the whole world know
That Jesus Christ lives in my heart,
His glorious light to show. —Brandt

Our love for God shows in our love for others.


Bible in One Year: Song of Songs 4–6; Proverbs 20:11-20
