September 1 - October 31 is Marion Medical Mission Well Season for 2019. The season will include daily devotionals - one for each day the U.S. volunteers are overseas, sharing the love of Jesus by providing safe, clean, sustainable sources of drinking water to the extreme poor in sub-Saharan Africa. Marion Medical Mission is one of our mission partners at Grace Presbyterian Church of Midland, Texas, and we STRONGLY encourage you to read these devotions to learn more about - and pray for! - their mission.

LOVE YOUR PRECIOUS LIFE
Francis Kaponda
MMM Field Officer, Malawi
"I came that they may have and enjoy life,
and have it in abundance, in all its fullness." John 10:10
We are what we speak. The more we speak much of negative things the more negativity rings all around our thoughts. Like the saying goes, the world is like a mirror,
when you smile it smiles back at you. The more you talk about love increases the
ability to love in your life.
We all need to learn this reality of life. Love the life you have, never compare
yourself to others. Learn to be contented with what you have and love everything
except evil. If you don’t like something, change it if you can. If you don’t like your
current job, change it for another one. In the same way if you don’t like your
location now move to another neighborhood. However realize there are some
things you can’t change. If you don’t like the weather, realize you can’t change so
you just need to change your attitude. As Reinhold Niebuhr said: “God, grant me
the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I
can, and wisdom to know the difference.”
The more you are filled with positivity and loving thoughts the more you will speak
positivity and loving words; hence, the happier you will be with your life.
Application Question: Do I love everyone in my life, even my enemies?
Prayer: : Lord, help me develop the spirit of loving everything and everyone in my
life for that’s the best for me at a particular time. Help me move in the track you
enlighten me to pass through by every step I take in this life. Let my happiness
bring light and to brighten the dark moments of my life as well as of others in
Jesus’ name, Amen.
