Prayers, thoughts,
& questions:
By Sheryl Pang• via e-mail
Best friends come and go,
but Jesus stays, this I know.
He is there when you don't
understand.
Put Him down and blame Him;
Firm will He stand.
He loves you beyond all compare,
even when you are unfair.
Jesus will never leave nor
forsake;
His love for you will never shake.
Jesus died for you and me;
Jesus died so we could be free.
I don't deserve Him, no one does.
He will always love all of us.
Never let the Devil break you
down.
Just remember who wore that
crown.
Lay your crown at His feet.
Jesus is strong and can't be beat.
To learn more about
the Holy Spirit, read the
following:
Luke 12:11-12
John 14:25-26
Acts 1:8
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Ephesians 1:13-14
Ephesians 4:29-32
�
The Holy Spirit isn’t just your
conscience. He is God in you.
Pay attention when He speaks.

Going
Deeper
Read Through
the Bible
One of the ways the Holy

God’s Word. Follow our
suggestions, and you’ll read
through the Bible in one year.

• Acts 11–16:15
Jesus died for you and me;
Jesus died so we could be free.
