OUR DAILY BREAD November 11, 2018 Sunday CONFIDENT HOPE Randy Kilgore For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.  Philippians 1:21 Philippians 1:19–26 Jeremiah 50; Hebrews 8 Dr. William Wallace was serving as a missionary surgeon in Wuzhou, China, in the 1940s when Japan attacked China. Wallace, who was in charge of Stout Memorial Hospital at the time, ordered the hospital to load his equipment on barges and continue to function as a hospital while floating up and down rivers to avoid infantry attacks.  During dangerous times, Philippians 1:21—one of Wallace’s favorite verses—reminded him that if he lived, he had work to do for the Savior; but if he died, he had the promise of eternity with Christ. The verse took on special meaning when he died while falsely imprisoned in 1951. Paul’s writing reflects a deep devotion we can aspire to as followers of Jesus, enabling us to face trials and even danger for His sake. It is devotion enabled by the Holy Spirit ...

OUR DAILY BREAD November 10, 2018 Saturday HIS PRESENCE Lawrence Darmani My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.  Exodus 33:14 Exodus 3:7–12 Jeremiah 48–49; Hebrews 7 The anxious father and his teenage son sat before the psychic. ā€œHow far is your son traveling?ā€ the psychic asked. ā€œTo the big city,ā€ the man replied, ā€œand he will be gone for a long time.ā€ Handing the father a talisman (a kind of good-luck charm), he said, ā€œThis will protect him wherever he goes.ā€ I was that boy. However, that psychic and that talisman could do nothing for me. While in that city, I put my faith in Jesus. I threw away the talisman and clung to Christ. Having Jesus in my life guaranteed God’s presence. Thirty years later, my father, now a believer, said to me as we rushed my brother to the hospital, ā€œLet us first pray; the Spirit of God goes with you and will be with you all the way!ā€ We had learned that God’s presence and power is our only security. Moses learned a similar...

OUR DAILY BREAD November 9, 2018 Friday WHAT WE CAN DO Xochitl Dixon In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.  Philippians 2:5 Philippians 2:1–11 Jeremiah 46–47; Hebrews 6 Even though confined to his bed, 92-year-old Morrie Boogaart knit hats for the homeless in Michigan. He had reportedly made more than 8,000 hats in fifteen years. Instead of focusing on his health or limitations, Mr. Boogaart looked beyond himself and did what he could to place the needs of others above his own. He declared that his work made him feel good and gave him a purpose. He said, ā€œI’m going to do this until I go home to the Lordā€ā€”which happened in February 2018. Though most recipients of his hats won’t know his story or how much he sacrificed to create each cap, Morrie’s simple act of persevering love is now inspiring people across the world. We too can look past our struggles, place others ...

OUR DAILY BREAD November 8, 2018 Thursday FATHERS AND SONS David H. Roper He will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers.  Malachi 4:6 esv Ephesians 4:31–32 Jeremiah 43–45; Hebrews 5 My father was a good father, and, in most respects, I was a dutiful son. But I allowed my father to starve for the one thing I could have given him: myself. He was a quiet man; I was equally silent. We often worked for hours side-by-side with scarcely a word passing between us. He never asked; I never told him my deepest desires and dreams, my hopes and fears.  In time I woke up to my reticence. Perhaps the perception came when my first son was born, or when, one by one, my sons went out into the world. Now I wish I had been more of a son to my father. I think of all the things I could have told him. And all the things he could have told me. At his funeral I stood beside his casket, struggling to understand my emotions. ...

OUR DAILY BREAD November 7, 2018 Wednesday I’M SORRY Alyson Kieda Forgive as the Lord forgave you.  Colossians 3:13 Colossians 3:12–17 Jeremiah 40–42; Hebrews 4 In 2005, Collins falsified a report that resulted in McGee being thrown in prison for four years, and McGee vowed to find Collins when he got out and ā€œhurt him.ā€ McGee was eventually exonerated, but not before he lost everything. Meanwhile, Collins’s many falsified reports were uncovered, he lost his job, and he too spent time behind bars. But both men came to faith in Christ while in prison. In 2015, the two discovered they were working together in the same faith-based company. Collins recalls, ā€œI [told McGee], ā€˜Honestly, I have no explanation, all I can do is say I’m sorry.ā€™ā€ It was ā€œpretty much what I needed to hear,ā€ said McGee, who graciously forgave him. The men were able to reconcile because both had experienced the incomparable love and forgiveness of God, who empowers us to ā€œforgive as the Lord forga...

OUR DAILY BREAD  November 6, 2018 Tuesday  DAD AT THE DENTIST Adam Holz My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.  Matthew 26:39 Matthew 26:36–39 Jeremiah 37–39; Hebrews 3 I didn’t expect a profound lesson about the Father’s heart at the dentist’s office—but I got one. I was there with my ten-year-old son. He had an adult tooth coming in under a baby tooth that hadn’t fallen out yet. It had to come out. There was no other way. My son, in tears, pleaded with me: ā€œDad, isn’t there another way? Can’t we just wait and see? Please, Dad, I don’t  want  to have this tooth pulled!ā€ It just about broke my heart, but I told him, ā€œSon, it’s got to come out. I’m sorry. There’s no other way.ā€ And I held his hand as he wriggled and writhed while the dentist removed that stubborn molar, tears in my eyes too. I couldn’t take his pain away; the best I could offer was to be present with him in it. In that moment, I r...

OUR DAILY BREAD November 5  2018 Monday WISDOM’S SOURCE Jennifer Benson Schuldt Give your servant a discerning heart.  1 Kings 3:9 1 Kings 3:16–28 Jeremiah 34–36; Hebrews 2 A man filed a lawsuit against a woman, claiming she had his dog. In court, the woman said her dog couldn’t be his and told the judge where she had purchased it. The real owner’s identity was revealed when the judge released the animal in the courtroom. Tail wagging, it immediately ran to the man! Solomon, a judge in ancient Israel needed to settle a somewhat similar issue. Two women each claimed to be the mother of the same baby boy. After considering both arguments, he requested a sword to divide the infant in half. The real mother begged Solomon to give the baby to the other woman, choosing to save her son’s life even if she could not have him (1 Kings 3:26). Solomon gave the baby to  her . Wisdom is necessary as we decide what’s fair and moral, right and wrong. If we truly value wisdom, we...
