Scripture –
"Now therefore why do you put God to the test by placing upon the neck of the disciples a yoke which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?
"But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are."
Acts 15: 10-11
Ahora pues, por qué tentáis a Dios poniendo sobre el cuello de los discípulos un yugo que ni nuestros padres ni nosotros hemos podido llevar?
Creemos más bien que somos salvos por la gracia del Señor Jesús, de la misma manera que ellos también lo son.
Hechos 15: 10-11

Scripture –
You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly and uprightly and blamelessly we behaved toward you believers;
just as you know how we were exhorting and encouraging and imploring each one of you as a father would his own children,
so that you would walk in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
2 Thessalonians 2: 10-12
Dios y ustedes me son testigos de que nos comportamos con ustedes los creyentes en una forma santa, justa e irreprochable. Saben también que a cada uno de ustedes lo hemos tratado como trata un padre a sus propios hijos. Los hemos animado, consolado y exhortado a llevar una vida digna de Dios, que los llama a su reino y a su gloria.

Monday's Living Water
Scripture –
My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness,
And my mouth offers praises with joyful lips.
When I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches,
For You have been my help,
And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
My soul clings to You;
Your right hand upholds me.
Psalm 63: 5-8
Como con médula y grosura está saciada mi alma;
y con labios jubilosos te alaba mi boca.
Cuando en mi lecho me acuerdo de ti,
en ti medito durante las vigilias de la noche.
Porque tú has sido mi socorro,
y a la sombra de tus alas canto gozoso.
A ti se aferra mi alma;
tu diestra me sostiene.
Salmos 63: 5-8
