TEEN MISSIONARIES GET MARRIED AFTER MEETING ON A MISSION TRIP, 24 HOURS LATER THIER LIVES WERE TAKEN.

A Young Christian couple who dedicated their lives to missionary work had just stepped into marriage when their story took a devastating turn.
They met while serving as missionaries in South Africa, both passionate about sharing the Gospel and living out their faith on the mission field.
Their love grew quickly, rooted in their shared calling and devotion to God.
Soon, they were engaged-and believed they were stepping into a lifelong journey of ministry together as husband and wife.
They held a simple courthouse wedding surrounded by close family.
It was a moment of joy, faith, and new beginnings.
But just one day after saying "I do," tragedy struck.
The newlyweds were involved in a fatal car crash, cutting their marriage story down to less than 24 hours.
One passed away at the scene, and the other later died in the hospital from injuries sustained in the crash.
What should have been the start of a lifetime together became a heartbreaking reminder of how fragile life truly is.
Yet even in the sorrow, those who knew them continue to speak of their deep faith and devotion to Jesus.
Their lives may have been short, but their testimony of love for Christ continues to speak.
In the midst of grief, many are reflecting on a deeper biblical truth found in Isaiah 57:1: '
"The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; devout people are taken away, while no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil."

Though their time on earth was brief, their legacy of faith, love for Christ, and missionary devotion continues to speak.

DAY 24 - Morning
Theme: BUILDING A SAFE HOME: Creating a Marriage Where Love Respect and Peace Can Grow

Reflection
Money Should Not Become the Master

Good morning,
Money can provide opportunities, but money can also become a source of serious tension in marriage.
One spouse may be a saver.
The other may be a spender.
One may believe in supporting extended family generously.
The other may be thinking about school fees, rent, investments and the future.
These differences need conversation—not secrecy.
A marriage becomes stronger when couples can sit together and honestly discuss:
What do we have?
What do we owe?
What do we need?
What are we saving for?
How can we help family without damaging our own household?
Money should serve the marriage.
It should not rule it.

God's Word
"The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty." — Proverbs 21:5

Today's Love Action
Have a calm conversation with your spouse about one financial goal you want to pursue together.

Let's Talk
What financial habit would strengthen our marriage most?

Prayer
Father, give us wisdom, discipline and unity in managing the resources You have entrusted to us. Amen.

From The Counselor's Chair
Financial disagreements are often not only about money. They can involve security, expectations, family obligations and different experiences from childhood. Listen for the concern underneath the disagreement.

Marriage Nugget
"Don't let money become the third voice controlling your marriage."

Remember
In marriage, it is not about winning the argument; it is about winning each other's hearts.

Colossians 4:1, NASB
“Masters, grant to your slaves justice and fairness, knowing that you too have a Master in heaven.”

Goodness gives birth to goodness. Badness gives birth to badness! What you give to others will be given back to you. This is the rule of God's Creation! Take Care!

Prayer:
Luke 6:38, NASB
“Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure--pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”

May we give out of Your Goodness, Mercy and Grace, out of the Heart of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Amen.

GOD'S WORD FOR THE DAY

“Serving God With a Willing Heart”

1 Chronicles 12:38

“All these men of war, who could keep ranks, came to Hebron with a loyal heart, to make David king over all Israel.”

This is the Word of God. 1 Chronicles 12 describes how men from different tribes came together to support David and unite Israel. Though they came from different backgrounds, they shared one purpose and gave themselves willingly to something greater than themselves.

God also calls us to serve with a loyal and willing heart. Our gifts, abilities, and backgrounds may be different, but when our hearts are united in God's purpose, He can use us powerfully.

The question is not simply whether we have something to offer, but whether we are willing to offer it wholeheartedly. God can accomplish great things through people who are united, faithful, and willing to serve.

May God give us loyal hearts, willing spirits, and a shared passion to serve His purposes faithfully wherever He has placed us. Amen.

Have a blessed day with the Lord.

-- Pastor Emmanuel Serto

The Power of Prima’s 4-Capsule System
Prima wasn't designed around one single ingredient.

It was intentionally formulated as a multi-dimensional botanical system, using curated materials selected for their specific phenolic profiles and how they work together. This level of formulation simply doesn’t exist in the market.

Inside your daily serving you'll find:

• 2 HPEVOO Softgels: High-phenolic extra-virgin olive oil rich in naturally occurring olive polyphenols, infused with rosemary.

• 1 Olivectin™ Capsule: A proprietary blend of olive leaf and olive fruit extracts featuring naturally occurring oleuropein, verbascoside, and other olive polyphenols.

• 1 Rossa™ Capsule: A proprietary blend of grape seed extract and lycopene providing naturally occurring proanthocyanidins, catechins, and carotenoids.

Together, these ingredients provide a much more complete, diverse, and synergistic spectrum of plant compounds than any single component could offer on its own. This is the power of Prima’s multi- dimensional daily botanical system.

Each component of the Prima system is important, but the power of Prima comes from the synergy of all four capsules, delivering a broad, diverse, and complementary spectrum of phenolics and botanicals that no single ingredient, including HPEVOO, could provide alone.

Romans 3:

"1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law."

NOTHING IS WASTED IN GOD’S HANDS!

Everything you have gone through is not meaningless. The mountain, the valley, the breakthrough, the delay, the tears, the laughter—God can use it all for your becoming!

Some seasons teach you through joy.
Some lessons come through pain.
Some doors close because God is preparing you for a better one.
Some people leave because their assignment in your life is over.

You may not understand everything now, but one day you will look back and say, “Indeed, God was in the process all along!”

Your becoming is not an accident. It is a divine process. God is molding your character, strengthening your faith, deepening your roots, and preparing you for the purpose He has ordained for your life.

So don't despise the process.
Don't give up in the valley.
Don't lose faith because of the delay.

What looks like a setback may be a divine setup!
What broke you may be what God uses to build you.
What you thought was the end may become the beginning of your greatest testimony.

Keep trusting God. Keep praying. Keep believing. Keep becoming.

Your story is still being written, and the Author has not finished with you yet!

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God…” — Romans 8:28
