Evening: Psalm 49; John 2:23-3:15
Daily readings, thoughts from Graham. Pilgrims on the Way to the shrine of the apostle James in Spain shout a greeting to one another: “Ultreya!”; "Keep going", "Press on", “Onward”.

Has anyone told you you’re awesome?
Morning: Psalm 119:49-72; Deuteronomy 9:13-21; Hebrews 3:12-19
John’s
Gospel announces that Jesus is no ordinary human being, but ‘the Word
made flesh’. The story goes on ... that means every human being is
extraordinary too. A friend of mine often bowls me over by asking: “Has
anyone told you today how awesome you are?” That’s essentially what
Jesus tells Nicodemus when he says you must be ‘born from above.’ This
is the awesome mystery of our humanity ... Life is so much more than a
physical body, much bigger than what we see or touch. When you accept
how awesome you are, what a difference that makes.
