DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Jesus told us, “Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own” (Matthew 6:34). Whenever an anxious “what if” rises up, let us pause to remember that, with You, the story always ends in hope. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

EVERYDAY HEROES: I went through the Burger King drive-through (no judging it’s all I had time for) to pick up a sandwich.
The voice over the intercom asked me quite kindly, “What would you like to eat today?”
I answered, quite honestly, “Well if you’re asking, I’d like to have a steak, medium rare, a loaded baked potato, and a side of lobster bisque.”
Immediately I heard two or three voices burst out and laughter, and the voice on the intercom said, “Me too!”
I placed my menu-accurate order and when I pulled around to pick it up the receipt had this drawing on it.
Don’t forget, in the daily grind of life, to take time to make someone smile, you never know how that will make you smile in return.
