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!

What, you want to be king?
This is a guy who was lazily leaning on a tree trunk in the woods while his sheep grazed nearby. Oh, yes, he was strumming his harp…..and singing contentedly. And when the urgent summons came from his father Jesse for an interview with the prophet Samuel, he just left the sheep care of a servant and ran.
He had no time to knot a necktie. Why, he didn’t even have a resume ready! But before he could say ‘what,ho’ the oil of anointment was flowing down his beard!
Tell me your qualifications, son!
