2 Timothy 3:16-17 NASB "All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17 so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work."Things were beginning to run slowly, the screen would lock up and I knew it was time for an upgrade! Today's verse shares about God's Word, how it is good for teaching, for correction, for training so that we are able to do the good work we are called to do! I had missed the message that told me it was time to upgrade my operating system on my computer. Only after looking at why things weren't working well did I find that I needed to upgrade the operating system. With a few clicks of the mouse, my computer was up and running faster and more efficient than before! Maybe it's time we upgraded our life with Christ. Using God's Word as our upgrade so that we can work adequate and equipped for the work He has called us to. What operating system are we using today, maybe it's time to upgrade to His?! peace, tom

Revelation 20:15 NASB "And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."I had dusted them off a few times but finally got around to going through the many books on my bookshelves! I came across one and opened the front cover and there I found a message written to me by the author! Today's verse speaks to us about the Book of Life and how if our name is not found in the book, we will be thrown into the lake of fire! As I read the message from the author, I found myself thinking back to when I met him and his words of encouragement at a time in my life when I need that little extra push to keep going. There is no better place to go for help than God's Book, the Bible, but there is also no better place to have our name written than in the book of life. Getting our name there takes repentance, and turning to Christ as our Lord and Savior! BTW, when I send these devotions out, I pray for all who read them, that they will have their name written in the Book of Life! Help my prayer become answered and say YES to Jesus! I'd rather have you with me in heaven then in the lake of fire! peace, tom
