And this was why the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath. But Jesus answered them, "My Father is working until now, and I am working." (John 5:16-17) ESV.

Father, open my spiritual eye to see what you are doing so that I am constantly doing your will. Help me to always be ready to be an ambassador for Christ sharing the good news that will bring salvation and healing to the suffering and the sick in their body, soul and spirit. In Jesus' name I pray.

For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 1:5-8) ESV.

Lord Jesus, I want to truly know you and have a fresh, new experience with you this week. Let my faith in you reflect a life of self-control, steadfastness, godliness and love as I walk in your divine love. May the people you bring into my path this week experience a touch of your love, grace and mercy. In Jesus' holy name I pray.

Jesus said to her, "Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life." (John 4:13-14) ESV.

Lord Jesus, thank you for giving me the living water that is pure, peaceful and permanent. Help me to keep drinking from you in both good and challenging times. I want my Christian life be a fountain flowing with abundant love of God and joy of the Holy Spirit so that those who know me shall know Jesus, the Giver of this divine gift. In Jesus' name I pray.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16) ESV.

Heavenly Father I am reminded this morning that you so loved me that you gave Jesus, the most important gift a human can ever have, to me so that I can spend eternity with you. Help me to spend time to ponder and meditate on this awesome truth.  Let my heart truly rejoice over this everlasting love I am experiencing. In the precious name of Jesus I give you praise Father.
