DAILY?READINGS: 1 Chronicles 10-11; Ezekiel 12; John 4:1-30

What think ye of Christ? Matthew 22:42

Every Sunday we have an opportunity to answer that question in the Lord’s Supper. What a shame to waste it by not coming prepared. In song, through Scripture reading and in worshipful prayer, tell the Lord what you think of Him! Part of preparation is spending time every day in personal devotion to the Lord. Another key is not to allow any activity on Saturday to tire us, take our minds off Christ and dull our worship on Sunday. The more we think of Christ, the less we think of ourselves. John the Baptist said, “He must increase, and I must decrease” (John 3:30). So it is with each of us. —Carl Knott

Was e’er a gift like the Saviour given? No, not one! No, not one!
Did ever saint find this Friend forsake him? No, not one! No, not one!
