Even as you hit the fast lane of life with furious strides that brook no brakes, won’t you pause a moment to grab a grain of scriptural truth embedded herein ? (click on hypertext in the Day’s Reading for reference verse)
No obligations! You are of course perfectly at liberty to skip these Readings altogether. Should that be your choice, go ahead – save 30 seconds!
God bless!

Is your name there?
There has been a lot of talk lately about the NCR, the National Register of Citizens in India. Several thousand years ago in the time of Ezrah too , this subject was in every one’s lips when those taken captive by king Nebuchadnezzar to Babylon were returning to Israel. Many were able to prove their ancestry to the satisfaction of the authorities but some could not .
But the most important question that should concern everybody is whether our names are in the Book of Life. In contrast to the National Registry, here the question is not at all about your ancestry. It is you, personally, individually. Religion no bar.
Have you put your faith in the finished work of Jesus?
