Mark 6:1-3 New King James Version
1 Then He went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples followed Him. 2 And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were astonished, saying, “Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands! 3 Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?” So they were offended at Him.
     Lord, "familiarity has bred contempt" of you.

Mark 6:4-6 New King James Version
4 But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house.” 5 Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them. 6 And He marveled because of their unbelief. Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.
     Jesus, you are often without honor in your church.

2 Timothy 2:1-2 New King James Version
1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
     Jesus, please help me find my strength in you.

2 Timothy 2:3-4 New King James Version
3 You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier.
     Father, please help me by your Holy Spirit to be a good soldier for Christ.

A Word Received (2-20-01): Torre, relax. I'm the Savior of the world not you.

Psalm 91:1-2 New King James Version
1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”
     Jesus, help me dwell under your shadow.

Psalm 91:3-4 New King James Version
3 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. 4 He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
     Holy Spirit, help me escape every trap of the evil one.

Job 6:1-3 New King James Version
1 Then Job answered and said: 2 “Oh, that my grief were fully weighed, And my calamity laid with it on the scales! 3 For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea—Therefore my words have been rash.
     Jesus, help me recognize the sorrows that many go through.

Leviticus 18:1-5 New King James Version
1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘I am the Lord your God. 3 According to the doings of the land of Egypt, where you dwelt, you shall not do; and according to the doings of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you, you shall not do; nor shall you walk in their ordinances. 4 You shall observe My judgments and keep My ordinances, to walk in them: I am the Lord your God. 5 You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, which if a man does, he shall live by them: I am the Lord.
     Father, help us observe your ordinances and not go the way of the surrounding pagan culture.

A Word Received: Look to me for guidance and light in the surrounding darkness.
