Let’s study The purpose of The Daily Lily’s website and renew our commitment to God by ‘Serving Others with love.” We will break our study down in three sections. This series, Love, “Serving Others with Love.”
“There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13 (NLT) And, vs. 12, gives the commandment, “This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you.”

My son is in the fifth grade. He is on the Bible Quiz Team at his
school. They travel to different schools that host the competition.
Schools from all over come to these competitions to test their
knowledge of God’s Word. Last competition, Noah Quizzed Out. This means
he answered six questions in a row correctly. The answer is not
correct if it has one word out of place. A Quiz Out gives your school
extra points. The grade levels include pre-K to 6th grade. There is a
separate 7th-12th level. The older grade levels take one book of the
Bible and are quizzed on it. There are two ways they may answer
questions. When the students are asked a question they may interrupt
the question by hitting the buzzer and completing the question word
for word and then answering the question correctly.
“We seldom realize fully that we are sent to fulfill God-given tasks. We act as if we were simply dropped down in creation and have to decide to entertain ourselves until we die. But we were sent into the world by God, just as Jesus was. Once we start living our lives with that conviction, we will soon know what we were sent to do.”

I have a question for those that have the gift of Mercy. Or, may just have the understanding of this gift. How does one know and understand when and how to extend mercy?
One of my good friends introduced me to this site. And, I loved it. Therefore, I would like to share with my lily friends.
After reading about how God lit the fire that burned the sacrifice in the tabernacle and making the connection that is like Jesus lighting the fire within us to really know Him.
Like the sacrifice on the alter long ago the priest had to keep the fire going and so do we. Jesus was the sacrifice for our sins. Do we maintain passions fire for Jesus?
If we do then we will be the torch in this dark world for Jesus’ SAKE! This is a response to reading Beth Moore study -
THE HEART OF A WOMAN.
