Scripture –
No prolonged infancies among us, please. We'll not tolerate babes in the woods, small children who are an easy mark for impostors. God wants us to grow up, to know the whole truth and tell it in love—like Christ in everything. We take our lead from Christ, who is the source of everything we do. He keeps us in step with each other. His very breath and blood flow through us, nourishing us so that we will grow up healthy in God, robust in love.
Ephesians 4: 14-16 (The Message)
Así ya no seremos niños, zarandeados por las olas y llevados de aquí para allá por todo viento de enseñanza y por la astucia y los artificios de quienes emplean artimañas engañosas. Más bien, al vivir la verdad con amor, creceremos hasta ser en todo como aquel que es la cabeza, es decir, Cristo. Por su acción todo el cuerpo crece y se edifica en amor, sostenido y ajustado por todos los ligamentos, según la actividad propia de cada miembro.
Efesios 4: 14-16 (NVI)

Scripture –
Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head, and he fell to the ground and worshiped.
He said,
"Naked I came from my mother's womb,
And naked I shall return there
The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away.
Blessed be the name of the LORD."
Through all this Job did not sin nor did he blame God.
Job 1: 20-22
Al llegar a este punto, Job se levantó, se rasgó las vestiduras, se rasuró la cabeza, y luego
se dejó caer al suelo en actitud de adoración. Entonces dijo:
«Desnudo salí del vientre de mi madre,
y desnudo he de partir.
El Señor ha dado; el Señor ha quitado.
¡Bendito sea el *nombre del Señor!»
A pesar de todo esto, Job no pecó ni le echó la culpa a Dios.
Job1: 20-22 (NVI)

Friday's Living Water
Scripture –
Just think—you don't need a thing, you've got it all! All God's gifts are right in front of you as you wait expectantly for our Master Jesus to arrive on the scene for the Finale. And not only that, but God himself is right alongside to keep you steady and on track until things are all wrapped up by Jesus. God, who got you started in this spiritual adventure, shares with us the life of his Son and our Master Jesus. He will never give up on you. Never forget that.
1 Corinthians 1:7-9 (The Message)
Así se ha confirmado en ustedes nuestro testimonio acerca de Cristo, de modo que no les falta ningún don espiritual mientras esperan con ansias que se manifieste nuestro Señor Jesucristo. Él los mantendrá firmes hasta el fin, para que sean irreprochables en el día de nuestro Señor Jesucristo. Fiel es Dios, quien los ha llamado a tener comunión con su Hijo Jesucristo, nuestro Señor.

Thursday's Living Water
Scripture –
"It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. God is sheer being itself—Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration."
John 4: 23-24 (The Message)
Pero se acerca la hora, y ha llegado ya, en que los verdaderos adoradores rendirán culto al Padre en espíritu y en verdad, porque así quiere el Padre que sean los que le adoren. Dios es espíritu, y quienes lo adoran deben hacerlo en espíritu y en verdad.
