Thoughts: Compliments are precious. We remember them; we say them over to ourselves in the darkness; we savour them.
One of the most famous literary compliments is Antony’s for Cleopatra: “She makes hungry where most she satisfies.” Isaiah writes a beautiful compliment for Jerusalem: (You are) “a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.” Discussion: A diadem has many precious stones. Suppose each one represents a virtue. Which virtue would you like most to represent? Activity: Pay a sincere compliment to a church friend this week. ______________________________________________________________________________ Remember in prayer this week Connie Gill, Vivian Hansard, Larry Hornbeck, Wafaa Kareem, Eunice Kraase in rehab, Fred Laws at Heartland, and Linda Wright.
