Pray for Dave in Senegal: Day 8 - May 21

By

All good things must come to an end.

This will be my last day in the villages, working with my dear friend Alioune, who translates for me. Frankly, he does far more than that. He is a partner in ministry.

I have no idea where we will be doing it, but we will be visiting homes and talking about Jesus - like every other day.

Pray that the last day will be our best day.

As this day progresses, we will pack up and head back to Ziguinchor to begin the lengthy process of traveling home. We will say our goodbyes to Jean Batiste and Isabelle and head back to Ziguinchor. There is a hotel there (people laugh when I tell them the name - it's the "Flamboyent") where we will stay the night.

   Reading the Bible in 2025 Each day this year, we will read a selection from the Old Testament, the New Testament, a portion of the Psalms, and part of Proverbs. By the end of the year, you will have read the entire Bible. We read this way to give you a bit of variety.  NOTE: If you get behind, do not give up. Read today's readings and try to catch up when you have a chance. The goal is not to "accomplish a task" but to meet God in his word. Read the word. Also, if you are short on time, READ GOD'S WORD and skip my devotional! Bible Readings:   1 Samuel 15-16, Luke 18:1-30, Psalm 53, Proverbs 11:27-29      Scriptures linked to Bible Gateway in ESV version  Daily Devotional:   Prayer-ables In Luke 18:1-14, Jesus tells two "prayer-ables." Sorry, is that too corny? Okay, parables about prayer? These stories remind us of some important lessons about prayer.

  Reading the Bible Chronologically in 2026 This year, we will read the Bible chronologically, as it happened, instead of simply reading from Genesis to Revelation.  The Old Testament is approximately 3/4 of the Bible, but we will give more emphasis to the New Testament, spending half the year in the Old Testament and half in the New.  Bible Readings :   Judges 1-5 In Bible Gateway, we will link to the NIV this year, though you can choose any version you prefer.  Background:     Having divided up the tribal land, Israel failed to drive out the inhabitants as they were commanded to, and the result was a terrible cycle of spiritual drift, catastrophe, revival, and renewed drift. Chapter 2 explains the cycle, and the rest of the book covers the stories of the judges who led Israel back to God. There are 12 judges, but the book focuses on 7. Throughout the duration of this book, there is a downward moral spiral that results in Israel's lowest point in its ...
