John 20:24-29 ( NASB )
24
But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus,
was not with them when Jesus came.
25
So the other disciples were saying to him, “We
have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless
I see in His hands the imprint of the nails, and
put my finger into the place of the nails, and put
my hand into His side, I will not believe.”
26
After eight days His disciples were again inside,
and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors
having been shut, and stood in their midst and
said, “Peace be with you.”
John 20:24-29 ( NASB )
27
Then He said to Thomas, “Reach here with your
finger, and see My hands; and reach here your
hand and put it into My side; and do not be
unbelieving, but believing.”
28
Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and
my God!”
29
Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me,
have you believed? Blessed are they who did not
see, and yet believed.”

Make sure that your character is free from the
love of money, being content with what you have;
for He Himself has said, “I will never desert you,
nor will I ever forsake you,”
6
so that we confidently say, “The Lord is my
helper, I will not be afraid. What will man do
to me?”
“Friend Day” Prayer
Gracious Father, Lord of the Harvest, fill me
with Your Spirit that I might join You in
cultivating friendships that point people to
salvation in Jesus Christ. Make me sensitive
today as to how You are at work in their
lives and to recognize the opportunity for me
to invite them to church.

And all Your people sing along

He Set Me Free
CCLI #606984
Once like a bird
In prison I dwelt
No freedom from
My sorrow I felt
But Jesus came
And listened to me
And Glory to God
He set me free!
He set me free
Yes He set me free
He broke the bonds
Of prison for me
I’m glory bound
My Jesus to see
Glory to God
He set me free
Good bye to sin
And things that confound
Naught of this world
Will turn me around
Daily I’m workin’
And I’m prayin’, too
And, Glory to God
I’m goin’ through
He set me free
Yes He set me free
He broke the bonds
Of prison for me
I’m glory bound
My Jesus to see
Glory to God
He set me free
