Inspiration Abounds

I just felt it this morning. In today's Gospel reading, and in a comment from one of my sponsors. Couple these with the verse from my marathon training partner from a few weeks ago, we have a trifecta of readings of the day. Motivation for the big race, and to ease our minds during our house repairs from the storm, and while waiting for our 2nd adoption to complete.

1st Reading of the Day...
Luke 6:37-38
“Stop judging and you will not be judged.
Stop condemning and you will not be condemned.
Forgive and you will be forgiven.
Give and gifts will be given to you;
a good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing,
will be pour
ed into your lap.
For the measure with which you measure
will in return be measured out to you.”

2nd Reading of the Day...
Acts 20:24
Yet I consider life of no importance to me, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear witness to the gospel of God's grace.

3rd Reading of the Day...
Isiah 40:31
They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength, they will soar as with eagles' wings; They will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint.
Peace
