Freep mail me to be on or off the Daily Bread ping list

Good Wishes
February 3, 2011

In Singapore, the Chinese New Year season’s social and business dinners often begin with a dish consisting of salads, dressings, pickles, and raw fish. The name of the dish, Yu Sheng, is a pun that sounds like “year of prosperity.” It is traditional for those present to toss the salad together. As they do, certain phrases are repeated to bring about good fortune.

Our words may express our hopes for others for the year ahead, but they can’t bring about good fortune. The important issue is—what does God want to see in us in the coming year?

In his letter to the Philippians, Paul expressed his desire and prayer that their love “may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment” (1:9). The church had been a great tower of support for him (v.7), yet he urged them to continue to grow to love others. Paul wasn’t talking about intellectual knowledge but knowledge of God. Love for others starts with a closer relationship with Him. With a fuller knowledge of God, we can then discern between right and wrong.

Giving our best wishes to others for the coming year is fine. But our heartfelt prayer should be that we abound in love, so that we may be “filled with the fruits of righteousness . . . , to the glory and praise of God” (v.11).

Teach me Thy patience! still with Thee
In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong. —Gladden

People with a heart for God have a heart for people.

Read: Philippians 1:9-18

This I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment. —Philippians 1:9
Bible in a year:
Exodus 31-33; Matthew 22:1-22

I have never seen it this cold in the 17 years I've been back here. And the silly wind is blowing hard.

I know it's got to be even colder there....*hugs*

Received this little fella three years ago at a Veteran's Day Program.

He has a recorded message which is activated by pressing the button on his foot. With multiple voices, male, female, young and old the message is "Dear Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine, Guardsman and Veteran...."
