DAILY READINGS: 2 Samuel 15; Zephaniah 3; Galatians:3:1-14 [1] O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
[2] This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
[3] Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
[4] Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.
[5] He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
[6] Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
[7] Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
[8] And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
[9] So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
[10] For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
[11] But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
[12] And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
[13] Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
[14] That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments. Psalm:119:73(JOD.) Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

One evening as I walked up from the bay, I looked at the wonders around me and thought of my amazing Creator. Above me the sky was painted with a colourful artistry which changed from hour to hour. The magnificent tree ahead wore a garment of cream flowers. Brooding over it all was the rock topped hill that towers above the bay. Young calves played nearby adding a splash of life to the entire scene. Truly our Lord is an amazing God! —Janet Fleming
I want to praise my Lord, tell of His power,
Sing of the joy He gives each day and hour.
Honour His might name, Shout that He lives again,
Tell to the world His fame, Jesus my Lord. —Janet Fleming
