“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me”.
It’s an age-old saying handed down from generation to generation. The problem is…IT’S NOT TRUE!
Our children must learn that they will encounter bullies and bigots that will taunt them, and cause them to question their values and
self-esteem.
As parents it’s our responsibility to teach our children that they are loved by God, who created them to be perfect in His sight, and secure in a family that cherishes their worth.

When our lives are broken we find hope from the words of King David; “Hear me, O Lord, when I cry out! Have mercy on me and answer me! Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me.”
Let our tears become tears of joy as we ask God to restore our broken lives for His glory.

How many times when we see someone in need do we look the other way?
Maybe if our conscience really bothers us, we might go so far as to ask God’s mercy on them.
After all, the world is so big, and there’s so much need, we don’t know where to start, so we close our eyes and move on.
To quote Mandy Hale; “To make a difference in someone’s life you don’t have to be brilliant, rich, beautiful or perfect. You just have to care.”
To those in need the smallest thing can make all the difference.
So, look again, perhaps we are the ones who need God’s mercy!

The Chapel Quotes
“There are a lot of people that are confused, that are lost in this world today. Is there something holding us back from sharing our faith? Why do we stay silent when we have the best news ever? Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt so you may know how to answer each person. Pray, walk and share. Pray for an open door, prepare to walk through it. Pray without ceasing, be thankful in all circumstances. No matter where you are, no matter what situation you’re in, no matter what your past looks like God wants to use you right where you are. Pray for God to use you right where He has you.”
“Walk in wisdom toward outsiders making the best use of the time. Our witness to the Gospel begins with the way that we live and conduct our lives. Are we aware of how our actions are representing Christ in all that we do? It begins with living a life rooted in prayer with a thankful heart. Every conversation is an opportunity to represent Christ, first with our actions then with our words. Not just what we say, but how we say it as well.”

Devotion 07/26/2026
Our Devotion, “The Redbird” is by Nicole E. Dynes of Berne, Indiana, a professional writing major at Taylor University and a book reviewer for Church Libraries and Christian Book Previews.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5 – 6 (NIV)
As I was washing dishes one afternoon, my grandmother called to me from the bedroom, “Come quick! There’s a redbird outside the window.” At first, I was irritated, because I only had a few dishes left. My mom, who was sitting at the kitchen table, saw my frustration. “Go see the redbird,” she said quietly. It was a simple enough statement. Its meaning was clear – she wanted me to go see the bird. However, there was a deeper meaning to the words. By telling me to go, my mother was asking me to respect my grandmother’s request. By the time I entered the bedroom, the redbird had flown away, but my grandmother enjoyed describing it to me just as much as seeing it. It was not important that I see the bird, just that I went when I was called.
Has God placed a calling on your life that you are trying to postpone or avoid? Are you unsure about what He is asking you to do? Pray and ask God for clarity and guidance in this situation.
PRAYER: Lord, give me patience to wait for Your calling and faith to go when I’m called.

Rediscovering the Holy Spirit: God’s Perfecting Presence in Creation, Redemption, and Everyday Life
by Michael Horton
Zondervan, PB, 336 pages
Michael Horton does a solid job of explaining where the Holy Spirit is and how it works. Horton bypasses stepping on toes or calling names in regard to debates and arguments across the centuries as to the role of the Holy Spirit in both the Old and New Testaments. Instead, he uses the full weight of scriptural authority to emphasize how integral the Spirit is in every moment that believers draw breath. Beginning with an entire chapter that defines his language (from simple vocabulary to advanced theological terminology), Horton then builds layer after layer of cross-referenced evidences for the complete and total work of the Holy Spirit since before the beginning of human time. Because the text explains the supportive and nurturing role of the indwelling Spirit, this book is very encouraging to those who have a strong belief in prayer, in faith, and in divine intervention. Viewing the Holy Spirit as a Comforter is reassuring to many who find themselves feeling abandoned, alone, or unloved. This book explores the impact this part of the Godhead has on people of faith.
