DAILY READINGS: 2 Sam. 18 to 19:8; Jeremiah 2 to 3:5; Gal:4:1-20 [1] Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
[2] But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
[3] Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
[4] But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
[5] To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
[6] And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
[7] Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
[8] Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
[9] But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
[10] Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.

[13] Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
[14] And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
[15] Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
[16] Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
[17] They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
[18] But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
[19] My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
[20] I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.

The Queen of Sheba was first attracted to Solomon by the things that he did and the things that he said. This important order of being known first for works, then for speech is confirmed by Luke who summarised his Gospel as “all that Jesus began both to do and teach” (Acts:1:10And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

“Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only” (Jas. 1:22). Let us be identified today as belonging to Christ by what we do, as well as what we might be able to say for His glory. —Dan Coulson
Channels only, blessed Master, but with all Thy wondrous power;
Flowing through us, Thou canst use us, every day and every hour.
